Testudinata
Testudinata is the group of all tetrapods with a true turtle shell. It includes both modern turtles and many of their extinct, shelled relatives. Though it was first coined as the group containing turtles by Klein in 1760, it was first defined in the modern sense by Joyce and colleagues in 2004. Testudinata does not include the primitive stem-turtle Odontochelys, which only had the bottom half of a shell.
A recent phylogenetic tree of Testudinata included Angolachelonia and Testudines as sister-taxa and subgroups of Testudinata.Classification
