Hi all!
Been awhile since i posted anything so here goes. Today i decided to do some homework on how to properly ID Greek tortoises and i landed on to this website. I figure "hey why not share this w/ everyone!" Well here you go! lol....

It seems that site is not up to date on the current thinking on T. graeca nomenclature; see Fritz, et al. from 2009 'Mitochondrial Phylogeography of T. graeca...'

Joe, that's a good guide but there certainly are some false notes in it that should be taken into consideration.
