Abstract

A complete hypoplastron from the type material of Desmemys bertelsmanni (Wegner, 1911) is described and figured as neotype. This type sample is discussed and elucidated on geographically and stratigraphically comparable material. The type material is discussed on additional material from the Upper Jurassic which extends the stratigraphical rang of the genus.
