Painted turtles are brightly marked. They have a smooth shell about 90 to 250 mm long. The upper shell is relatively flat with red and yellow markings on a black or greenish brown background. Their shell acts as protection, but since the ribs are fused to the shell, they cannot expand their chests to breathe.
