		the Dermatemydidae, Eublepharinae, Anelytropsis and the aglyphous colubrines: Urotheca, Dromicus, Drymobius, Leptophis, Rhadinea, Streptophorus, or which, from their N. centre have sent some genera into Central America, or beyond into the S. continent: e.g.
		Chelydridae were periarctic and have disappeared from Eurasia; N. American offshoots are the Cinosterridae and Dermatemydidae, the latter now restricted to Central American countries.
		Crocodilia, probably once universal, afford through the Chinese alligator an instance of the original intimate connexion of the whole holarctic region, paralleled by many other animals which now happen to be restricted to E. Asia and to eastern N. America.

		At the posterior edge of each axillary notch there may be an axillary scute, and at the front edge of each inguinal notch there may be an inguinal scute.
		Inframarginals, a series of small scutes lying between the carapacial marginals and the sides of the adjacent plastral scutes, are present in the families Cheloniidae, Chelydridae, Dermatemydidae, and Platysternidae.
		Turtles of the genera Pelusios, Emys, Emydoidea, Terrapene, Cuora, Cyclemys, Pyxidea, Notochelys, Pyxis, and Testudo have a transverse hinge, more or less developed on the plastron, and in most species of Kinosternon a pair of hinges borders the abdominals.

	Turtle Molecular Phylogeny
		The close relationship of mud turtles (Kinosternidae) and the monotypic family Dermatemydidae, as the Kinosternoidae, is supported as is the close relationships between softshells (Trionychidae) and the Fly River or Pignosed Turtle (Carettochelyidae) as the Trionychoidae.
		On major conflict between the molecular evidence and previous morphological studies is the purported monophyly of the large superfamily Trionychoidea (Trionychidae, Carettochelyidae, Kinosternidae and Dermatemydidae).
		Bootstrap analysis of the morphological data set demonstrates moderate support based on morphological characters, but it is not supported by the molecular data.

	ADW: Kinosternidae: Information
		Sex determination is dependant on incubation temperature in all but Staurotypus, which has an XX-XY sex chromosome system.
		Kinosternids are most closely related to the Dermatemydidae based on skeletal characters.
		This species shares features with both Staurotypus and the Dermatemydidae.

		Dermatemydids are most closely related to the mud and musk turtles (Kinosternidae), based on several skeletal characters, including the shape of the cervical vertebrae.
		Fossils of extinct members of the Dermatemydidae extend the modern range to include eastern Asia, Europe, and North America.
