Descripción
During recent years, our knowledge of fossil turtles from northern Greece has improved, as a result of both the discovery and description of new specimens and the revision of previously published material. The sites of Allatini and Pylea are among the classic Latest Miocene?Earliest Pliocene localities of northern Greece and have produced notable chelonian material. The purpose of this paper is to revise the previously published specimens from these sites and describe a new specimen of a turtle from Allatini. Taken together, these specimens constitute a diverse Macedonian chelonian assemblage, comprising a small tortoise, a large tortoise and a turtle. Our results augment previous knowledge of the composition of the Greek paleochelonofaunas in three main respects: first, they show that Testudo amiatae was not present in the Greek fossil record; second, they bring to light the earliest mention of a giant tortoise in Greece; finally, they provide the most ancient confirmed record of a fossil geoemydid in Greece.
Au cours des années récentes, notre connaissance des tortues fossiles du Nord de la Grèce s’est enrichie, en raison, d’une part, de la découverte et de la description de nouveaux spécimens et, d’autre part, de la révision de matériel déjà publié. Les sites d’Allatini et Pylea figurent parmi les localités Miocène terminal–Pliocène basal du Nord de la Grèce ; elles ont produit une quantité importante de matériel chélonien. Le propos de cet article est de réviser les spécimens de ces sites antérieurement publiés et de décrire un nouveau spécimen provenant d’Allatini. Considérés dans leur ensemble, ces spécimens constituent un assemblage chélonien macédonien varié comportant une petite et une grande tortues aquatiques et une tortue terrestre. Nos résultats augmentent les connaissances relatives aux faunes paléochéloniennes de Grèce sur trois principaux points. Premièrement, ils montrent que Testudo amiatae n’était pas présente dans le registre fossile de la Grèce ; deuxièmement, ils mettent en lumière la mention la plus précoce d’une tortue aquatique géante en Grèce ; enfin, ils fournissent l’enregistrement confirmé le plus ancien d’une tortue géoémydidée fossile en Grèce.
