Occurrence Notes
Meade did not find this turtle during the inventory, but reported that it had been collected on the adjacent Catoosa Wildlife Management Area, and that lack of focused aquatic turtle surveys were probably the reason it was not found. Taylor et al. did not find it inside the park.; Data Source: Meade, L. 2005. Herpetofauna Survey of Obed Wild and Scenic River. Third Rock Consultants, Lexington, KY; Taylor, C. R. McKitrick, M.
