    1. Reviewed by James Harding    Jan 13, 2009

    Action: changed name from "Graptemys geographica" to "Graptemys pseudogeographica kohnii "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "This ID was in error— Graptemys geographica does not have the knobbed keel tips on the carapace and lacks the crescent line behind the eye, among other field marks. This specimen looks closest to G. pseudogeographica kohnii, the Mississippi Map Turtle."
