| Abstract |
|
Distribution and identification of the species of Kinosternon in northeastern Mexico are discussed. Five species have been recorded from a single drainage (Río Pánuco). The southernmost extent of the range of K. flavescens, and the northernmost extent of the ranges of K. integrum (in eastern Mexico), K. herrerai, and K. scorpioides occur in this area. Kinosternon hirtipes is known from only a single problematical locality in the Atlantic drainage of the area. Kinosternon flavescens, K. herrerai, and K. scorpioides are sympatric on the Atlantic coastal lowlands. Nomenclatural problems and errors in the literature are rectified. A key to the species in northeastern Mexico is included.
