Overview
Trachemys decussata decussata, the Eastern Cuban Slider, is the nominate subspecies of the Cuban Slider, found primarily in eastern Cuba. It is distinguished from the western subspecies by subtle morphological differences.
Scientific Name
Trachemys decussata decussata
Ecological Habits
Similar to the species: inhabits freshwater bodies, basks, omnivorous. Specific ecological data for the subspecies are not well-defined, but it is presumed to have the same habits as the species.
Major Threats & Conservation
Threats mirror those of the species: habitat loss, pollution, and harvesting. Conservation actions for the species also benefit the subspecies. Protection of wetland habitats and regulation of trade are crucial.
Morphological Characteristics
Males up to 27.3 cm SCL, females up to 45.0 cm, though size may vary geographically. Compared to the western subspecies T. d. angusta, it may have a narrower head and slightly different coloration patterns, but identification often requires expert examination.
Natural Distribution & Conservation Status
Restricted to eastern Cuba, with possible introduced populations in the Cayman Islands. Its overall distribution is part of the species' range; specific AOO and EOO data are not available separately. The subspecies shares the same conservation status as the species (Least Concern globally, but provisionally Near Threatened).
