摘要：Two pieces of fossil turtle from Tongshan, Anhui Province, probably of Late Pliocene,  w ere  sent to the  present  author for determination  by the  Anhui  Provincial Museum.  In view of the absence  of bony bridge, the hexagonal  neural plates  with short-sided behind, and the hinged hyoplastra and hypoplastra of plastron, the fossils were recognized as a  member of  Cuora, a living genus of  Emydidae distributed in East and Southeast Asia, chiefly in China. So far as it is known,  no  Pliocene  fossil record of this genus has been reported.
