Hi everybody,
I am a bit confused.
I read somewhere that Agrionemys is now widely accepted the genus for Russian tortoises.
I only now them by Testudo.
I read on wikipedia that there are morphological differences which causes them to have their own seperate genus.
Also, I have read that Testudo H. is still the main name... so...
Are they synonyms?
Or is one the established version?
Curious to know....
Take care,
Joey
