Abstract |
First documented record of Kinosternon scorpioides scorpioides (Reptilia, Testudines, Kinosternidae) in the State of Minas Gerais, Southeastern Brazil. Kinosternon scorpioides scorpioides is distributed from Panama to central Brazil and northern Argentina, and is registered in the North, Northeast, Midwest, and Southeast regions of Brazil, in areas of the Amazon, Caatinga and northern and central Cerrado biomes. In this paper we report the first documented record of the taxon in the State of Minas Gerais. A specimen was collected in the municipality of Porteirinha, north of Minas Gerais, in the area of Cerrado / Caatinga ecotone. This record significantly extends the known geographic distribution of the subspecies, forming the southern limit of distribution in Brazil.
