I.D. anyone?

[Lynn DeVries]

This is a male Greek I just bought, he will be here tomorrow. Any ideas on what kind he is? He has been a pet for 10 years and has a little issue with his plastron, but I think he will be fine once he gets to Heaven... er I mean Iowa

Looks like the poor thing had to live on cement! As far as I.D. you know, of course, that Dan's your man!

I'd need a straight down from the top carapace picture to be sure, but he looks like a Lebanonese Antakyan greek, T.g.antakyensis, to me. The time period fits with him coming out of Lebanon too.

Thanks Yvonne and Danny

When he gets here tomorrow I will get a top down shot and one of him in his new place
