Abstract

We report the southernmost distribution of Eastern Black-bridged Leaf Turtle Cyclemys pulchristriata Fritz, Gaulke & Lehr, 1997, in an isolated mountain in Ba Ria–Vung Tau Province, southern Vietnam based on morphological and molecular data of a wild juvenile captured in the wild. This record extends the distribution of this species about 150 km south of previous records and 600 km from its type locality.
