            <p> Type material.  The holotype, STUS 12121, corresponding to an almost complete shell (Figure 2 AB) . </p>
            <p>Referred material. A selection of 183 specimens,</p>
            <p>both from the type locality (Figure 2 C-J) and from other outcrops of the same geological formation</p>
            <p>(i.e., the Entrala Formation) and province (Zamora</p>
            <p>Province) (Figures 3-13), corresponding to relatively complete to partial shells, and isolated plates, including: both articulated carapacial and plastral elements (Figures 2 A-D, 2F-I, 3A-H), partial carapaces (Figures 2E, 4 A-G, 5A-H), complete and partial plastra (Figures 2J, 6 A-F, 7A-K, 8A-Q), nuchal plates (Figure 9 A-Y), epiplastra (Figure 10 A-Z), entoplastra (Figure 11 A-AG), and xiphiplastra (Figures 12 A-BR, 13A-X). See the collection numbers in the respective figure captions.</p>
            <p>  Type locality and horizon. El Escobar fossil site, Sanzoles Municipality,  Zamora Province , Castile and Leon Autonomous Community, northwestern Spain (Figure 1). Duero Basin. Entrala Formation, MP 13 or MP 14, Lutetian, middle Eocene (see Ortega et al., 2022 and references therein)  . </p>
            <p> Other localities.   Valdegallina 1, Valdegallina 2, and Valdegallina 3 fossil sites, Valdegallina locality, Zamora Municipality; Cubillos 1 and Tardemayas 1 fossil sites, located respectively on the west and south margins of the Infiernos Hill, Monfarracinos Municipality; Teso de la Mora fossil site,  Torres del Carrizal Municipality (Figure 1). As the type locality, all of them are located in the  Zamora Province , Castile and Leon  Autonomous Community , northwestern Spain. Duero Basin. Entrala Formation, MP 13 or MP 14, Lutetian, middle Eocene (see Ortega et al., 2022 and references therein)  . </p>
            <p> Emended diagnosis.  Neochelys zamorensis can be defined by the following exclusive character combination of shell features within the genus  Neochelys : elliptical carapace; maximum carapace length about 30 cm; slightly notched to unnotched anterior carapace margin; as wide as long to generally slightly wider than long nuchal; maximum nuchal width ranging between two and three times that of its anterior margin; seven or rarely eight neurals; longer than wide to slightly wider than long second and third neurals; slightly to almost twice wider than long suprapygal; slightly longer than wide to as wide as long pygal; slightly longer than wide to wider than long first peripheral; lyre-shaped first vertebral to development of substraight lateral margins; concave, convex or substraight first vertebral posterior margin; subequal width of the second and third vertebrals, both being the widest of the vertebral series; one and a half to two times as wide as long first marginal; anterior plastral lobe ranging from slightly wider than the posterior to slightly narrower than it; trapezoidal anterior plastral lobe; epiplastral posterior margin from as large as to two times larger than the anteromedial; entoplastral length from equivalent to its distance to the pectoral-abdominal sulcus to about two times greater; subrounded to generally substraight lateral margins of the posterior plastral lobe; anal notch width between two and two and a half times less than the maximum xiphiplastral width; anal notch two to four times wider than long; relatively long overlap of the gular on the entoplastron, reaching half the length of this plate, to almost absent overlap; presence or absence of a short to long gularpectorals contact. </p>
