Bothremys is an extinct genus of bothremydid pleurodiran turtle that was discovered near Gloucester, New Jersey.

[1] The holotype of Bothremys was discovered in the greensand formations near Gloucester Township, New Jersey, and obtained by Joseph Leidy in 1862.

[1] In Leidy's 1865 description, he notes that the skull lacks the auditory passages, zygomatic arches, and some other minor bones.

A deep conical pit occupies each maxilla, which led Leidy to suggest the presence of a tooth-like protuberance.

The orbit are separated from the temporal process by a bony "wall" composed of sections of several different skull bones.
