Abstract

A new fossil plastron of an adult male specimen of the giant land tortoise Geochelone bolivari (HERNANDEZ PACHECO, E., 1917; emend. ROYO, 1935), from the Vallesian of Arévalo (Avila province, Spain) is described in this paper. The thickened epiplastra are characteristic of the genus Geochelone, but the subgenus is still uncertain.
