Eastern black-bridged leaf turtle

The eastern black-bridged leaf turtle (Cyclemys pulchristiata) is a species of Asian leaf turtles found in southern Indochina.

The plastron is mostly yellow and may have short, fat lines, specks, or be uniformly colored.

Hatchlings have wide head and neck stripes and yellow plastrons.

It is mostly morphologically indistinguishable from the western black-bridged leaf turtle, C. atripons, requiring genetic sampling to confidently identify.

[3][6] It is found in eastern Cambodia and in southern and central Vietnam.
