I've been trying to research and figure this out on my own, but am not realy confident. My tortoise has a wide 5th vertebral scute, but I can't really say for sure if it is definitely larger than the 3rd scute (which I understand is an antakyan characteristic).
My guess is Syrian T. g. antakyensis. Can one of the experts help me ID species?
Sorry for the funky exposure colors. The top pic was taken in outside light so is most accurate.
