Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Yellow-spotted River Turtle (also known at the Yellow-spotted Amazon River Turtle) is one of the largest South American river turtles, It can grow up to 45 cm long and weigh up to 8 kg. This species can be recognized by its black or brown oval carapace (upper shell) with distinctive low keels on the second and third scutes. Yellow spots on the side of its head give this species its common name. These spots are most prominent in juveniles and fade with age. Females can be up to twice the size of males. Note that the photo is of a juvenile. Podocnemis unifilis (the scientific name for this species) is a type of side-necked turtle, so called because they do not pull their heads directly into their shell, but rather bend the neck sideways to tuck the head under the rim of the shell. Side-neck turtles are classified as members of the suborder Pleurodira.
