Cagle's map turtle (Graptemys caglei ) is a species of turtle in the family Emydidae. The species is endemic to Texas.

Geographic range

G. caglei is found only in the Guadalupe, San Antonio, and San Marcos Rivers in Texas.[3]

Etymology

The specific name, caglei, is in honor of American herpetologist Dr. Fred Ray Cagle (1915-1968).[4]

Description

Cagle's map turtle has intricate patterns on the carapace and plastron, as well as serrated edges on the posterior of the carapace, as is typical of all map turtles. It is smaller than most map turtles, and very sexually dimorphic, with males reaching only {{convert|4|in|cm|abbr=on}} straight carapace length, while females can exceed {{convert|7|in|cm|abbr=on}} in straight carapace length.[3]
