McCord & Iverson, 1992The Chinese false-eyed turtle (Sacalia pseudocellata), believed to be from Hainan, was a proposed species of turtle in the family Geoemydidae (formerly Bataguridae). Known only from the pet trade type specimens, it recently proved to be a hybrid (Stuart & Parham, 2006) between a male Golden Coin Turtle Cuora trifasciata and a female Sacalia quadriocellata.
