Cyclanorbinae , also known commonly as the flapshell turtles , is a subfamily of softshell turtles in the family Trionychidae . The subfamily is native to Africa and Asia .
Taxonomy [ edit ]
Morphological evidence supports Cyclanorbinae being the sister group to the Plastomeninae , an extinct subfamily of softshell turtles that inhabited North America from the Cretaceous to the Eocene .[1] [2]
The subfamily Cyclanorbinae contains the following three extant genera .[3]
One extinct prehistoric genus is also known from fossil remains: Nemegtemys Danilov et al., 2014Cretaceous of Mongolia .[4]
Geographic range [ edit ]
Species in the genera Cyclanorbis and Cycloderma are found in Africa; species in the genus Lissemys are found in Asia.[5]
