二名法 Elseya albagula(Thomson, Georges & Limpus, 2006)[1] 白喉癩頸龜(學名:Elseya albagula)是齒緣癩頸龜屬下的一種淡水龜,只生活在澳大利亞昆士蘭州的幾條河流中。[1] 這種龜是一種完全水生龜,很少登陸,主要以植物及其果實為食。[1] 有爭議者認為白喉癩頸龜應該被分成數個種,但是形態學和DNA證據都不支持此結論。[1][3] 目录 1 命名學 2 描述 3 參考文獻 4 外部連結 命名學 1960年代,白喉癩頸龜首次作為一個種得以描述。[4] 2006年定現名。[1] 其名稱得名於其成年雌性個體的白色喉部。[1] 描述 白喉癩頸龜平均背殼長度達45厘米(18英寸),呈圓形,褐色或黑色,無光澤。未成年體背部有龍骨狀盾板。[1] 其頭部前端有防護用鱗甲,嚙喙有明顯的齒槽。[1] 參考文獻 ^ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 1.7 Thomson, S., Georges, A. and C.
