Indotestudo elongata
Overview
Identity imported from rkb_core_species_master.csv by rkb-037-species-import. Taxonomy, distribution and conservation status are deliberately NOT set here — they are collected from licensed sources with provenance and citations.
CITES: CITES status has not yet been verified. No conclusion should be drawn from its absence — this species has not been checked against the Appendices, which is not the same as being unregulated.
