Summary

"A New Subspecies of Slider Turtle (Pseudemys scripta) from Coahuila, México" by John M. Legler is a scientific study from 1960 that introduces a newly discovered slider turtle subspecies in Mexico. The publication shares findings from a 1958 field study where researchers found and named the "Pseudemys scripta taylori.” A thorough description is provided in this book about the physical traits of the turtles, like shell shape and color markings, as well as their natural living environment.
