Occurrence Remarks: A large Spiny Softshell turtle (10-12 inches long) resting along the shore of large man-made lake in Civic Center Park in Palm Desert in the Mojave/Colorado desert. My favorite Spiny Softshell (Apalone spinifera) observations: Spiny Softshell (Apalone spinifera) is an introduced/naturalized, aquatic reptile in the Softshell and Flapshell Turtles (Trionychidae) family and the . It is found in lakes, ponds, rivers and streams. Females can grow up to 19 inches long. Spiny softshell turtles have soft, flat, rounded carapaces without scutes. The edges are pliable with small spines, in the eastern subspecies the spines are toward the front of the carapace. Some subspecies have the spines on the posterior part of the carapace ( A. s. pallida ) while some have them on most parts of the carapace (Behler and King 1998). The nose is long, tapered, and upturned at the end with ridges (Harding 1997). Unlike gulf spiny soft-shell turtles ( A. s. aspera ), with two distinct black-bordered yellow stripes on each side of the head that come together before the long neck, eastern spiny soft-shell turtles ( A. spinifera spinifera ) have two black-bordered yellow stripes that travel along the neck and do not connect (Conant and Collins 1998). The plastron is whitish or yellow with bones visible underneath. They have claws and their feet are webbed for swimming. The body is olive or tan with black speckles and a dark rim around the edge of their carapace. In A. s. aspera two or more dark lines can be found bordering the rear margin of the shell and in A. s. pallida , the black ring is lacking. Some subspecies have whitish spots on their whole carapace, the posterior half of their carapace, or on the rear third of their carapace, these subspecies being A. s. guadalupe , A. s. pallida , and A. s. emoryi respectively. These characteristics intergrade where hybrid zones occur. There is some sexual dimorphism. Adult males retain the juveniles olive and yellow coloration with black eyespots, have a slightly rougher carapace than females, and are smaller than females, with a carapace length of 12.7 to 24 cm. Males also have longer and thicker tails than females. The carapace of females darkens during adulthood and becomes a mottled gray. The length ranges from 24 to 48 cm (up to 19 inches) long. The tail barely extends past the edge of her carapace. https://animaldiversity.org/accounts/Apalone_spinifera/ Animal Diversity Web (ADW): https://animaldiversity.org/accounts/Apalone_spinifera/ Irenes Turtles and Tortoises (Testudines) Order observations on INaturalist, worldwide: Turtles and Tortoises (Testudines) Order: Turtles and tortoises belong to the reptile order Testudines, a group defined by having a hard, bony shell, lungs for breathing air, and reproduction through laying eggs. The shell is made of two main parts: the carapace on the back and the plastron on the belly. These pieces are not just attached to the skeleton but actually fused to the ribs and backbone, creating a solid protective structure. All turtles have a beak made of keratin, the same material found in human fingernails, and they do not have teeth. Like other reptiles, they are ectothermic, meaning their body temperature depends on the environment, and they have slow metabolisms that contribute to long lifespans. Even though all turtles share this basic body plan, they differ in several important ways. One major difference is how they pull their necks into the shell. HiddenΓÇænecked turtles fold the neck straight back, while sideΓÇænecked turtles bend it sideways. They also vary in habitat. Some species live on land, some in freshwater, and some in the ocean. A few aquatic species can take in oxygen through the lining of the throat or the cloaca, which is a chamber used for waste and reproduction, allowing them to stay underwater longer. Diets also vary widely. Some turtles eat plants, others eat animals, and many eat both. Their behaviors differ as well, with some species migrating long distances and others staying in small home ranges. These differences allow turtles and tortoises to live in environments ranging from deserts to rivers to open oceans across most of the world. Turtles reproduce by laying eggs, a strategy called oviparity. The embryo develops inside the egg outside the motherΓÇÖs body and gets all its nutrients from the egg itself. Many reptiles, birds, and some fish use this same method. In many turtle species, the temperature of the sand or soil where the eggs are buried determines whether the hatchlings become male or female. This is called temperatureΓÇædependent sex determination. Warmer or cooler conditions during incubation can shift the balance of males and females in a nest. Irenes Pond and Box Turtles (Emydidae) family observations on INaturalist, worldwide: Emydidae are a diverse family of hardΓÇæshelled turtles, with most species inhabiting freshwater environments such as ponds, rivers, and marshes, though a few tolerate brackish water or live primarily on land (e.g., North American box turtles). They range widely in size and shell shapeΓÇöfrom lowΓÇæarched, streamlined carapaces in aquatic forms to more domed shells in terrestrial species. Some have a fixed plastron, while others possess a hinged plastron that can close for protection. Limbs are generally adapted for swimming, with varying degrees of webbing between the toes. Diet and behavior are equally varied: species may be carnivorous, herbivorous, or shift from one to the other as they mature. Many exhibit temperatureΓÇædependent sex determination, and males of some species show courtship adaptations such as elongated foreclaws or a concave plastron to facilitate mating. Emydids are ecologically important as both predators and prey, and several species are wellΓÇæknown to the publicΓÇösuch as painted turtles, diamondback terrapins, and wood turtlesΓÇödue to their visibility, adaptability, and in some cases, popularity in the pet trade.

GBIFID: 2576437669; Occurrence Remarks: Adult female; this turtle was initially identified as a Spiny Softshell; however, at the time I was unaware that there were records of the Florida Softshell (Apalone ferox) from Alameda County which I just learned through reading the new California Amphibians and Reptiles by Robert W. Hansen and Jackson D. Shedd (2025). When I observed the turtle, I was a bit confused by the presence of the blunt, knobby tubercles on the anterior portion of the carapace which are apparent in the photographs if you zoom in. I have observed many softshell turtles in California over the years, but most of my observations were from a distance using binoculars where the presence/absence of carapace tubercles can be hard to seen. I have not previously had the opportunity to examine many softshell turtles in the hand and therefore did not have a good understanding of the variation of the knobby tubercle character in distinguishing these two species.;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 31.00000.

Occurrence Remarks: I found this little guy in Huminston Woods and was very intrigued! I had never seen this type of turtle. They are really fast in and out of the water. I actually took him home for a couple hours to see what I could watch it do. I had it in a tank with sand and watched it bury itself which was so cool! They keep their head extended out to breathe, but it is like finding Waldo. I also learned that they are carnivores, so I fed it mealworms and it ripped it apart and ate piece by piece. In the body of water I found it in there were multiple half eaten crayfish in the water and after researching I found out the Spiny Softshells are the reason for this. We returned him exactly where we had found him less than 3 hours later.; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 488.00000.

Occurrence Remarks: I spotted a fly in photos of this small Spiny Softshell turtle perched on a snag some distance offshore. Once I noticed the fly, I tried to zoom in and get better pix. But it was just too far away. It stayed on the turtle, moving around but not leaving, for the 12 minutes I worked on it. iNat has various suggestions. One of the most consistent is *Chrysops callidus*. My photos are pretty bad; I dont know if they could support detailed ID. Interesting, though: one reference I found said that female *Chrysops callidus* are known to feed on turtles and can transmit a parasite.; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 28090.00000.
