Testudinidae Testudo kleinmanni marginata graeca graeca Phylogenetic study is most useful approach for understand the evolutionary history of the species. Sequence divergence and phylogenetic status of four turtle species was estimated and constructed using 12S rRNA mitochondrial gene, for the conservation and as well as in management plans of endangered species of turtle which is highly poached for the human consumption in nation and international trade. All the sequences were obtained from the NCBI, edited and aligned in BioEdit Software for the analysis. Phylogenetic tree and sequence divergence were made in MEGA 5 software package. Sequence divergence between the four turtle species were ranges from 0.021 to 0.064 and within the species was 0.0003 in T. horsfieldii, where as in rest of three species sequence divergence was 0.000. For the identification of species, species specific nucleotides were also reported in the four species of turtle.
