The Assam leaf turtle (Cyclemys gemeli) is a species of turtle in the family Geoemydidae.[1][3][4] The species is native to India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Bangladesh.[1]
Etymology
The specific name, gemeli, is in honor of Austrian herpetologist Richard Gemel (born 1948).[4][5]
Description
The carapace of C. gemeli lacks patterns in adults. It is elongated and relatively flat, with nearly parallel sides. The plastron is unpatterned and dark brown. The head is brown, and the throat and neck are uniformly dark. The bridge is also dark brown.[6][7]
Geographic range
The Assam leaf turtle can be found in northeastern India, Nepal, Bhutan,[1][4] and Bangladesh.[1] Its geographic range may extend into Myanmar.[1]
Habitat
The preferred natural habitats of C. gemeli are freshwater wetlands and forest.[1]
Reproduction
C. gemeli reaches sexual maturity at around five years of age.[1] Like all turtles, it is oviparous.[4]
