(S. McDowell del.) Plastral formula: Abd > or = (p > or = or (an > or = or h. Color. Carapace of young pale or dark olive to olive brown, uniform, or each costal shield with a black-bordered yellowish spot or streak; the vertebrals with a narrow or broad median streak; marginals uniform or each marbled with j^ellow to a variable degree, frequently edged with yellow laterally. When any pattern is present each shield is apt to be narrowly edged with black, becoming more or less uniform in adults. 1 Six in a specimen from Ain Sefra ( 27343)..
