dc.description.abstractA turtle carapace, identified as Algorachelus cf. peregrina (Pleurodira, Pelomedusoides, Bothremydidae), is reported here from the shallow marine deposits of the Boundary Marls Unit (Utrillas Group), in Estercuel (Teruel Province, northeastern Spain). These levels are identified as deposited during the Lower to Upper Cretaceous transition (late Albian to earliest Cenomanian). This is the oldest record of a bothremydid turtle in Laurasia, documenting that the first dispersal of pelomedusoid turtles from Gondwana to Laurasia occurred earlier than previously identified, most probably in the Early Cretaceous. Pleurodiran turtles always require warm climatic conditions and are mainly freshwater forms. This dispersal was favored by climate change (global warming) that began in the Albian, as well as by the habitat change of the Algorachelus lineage from freshwater to coastal marine environments.en
