ABSTRACT We present a new record of the Scorpion Turtle Kinosternon scorpioides scorpioides for the department of Norte de Santander, Colombia. This specimen was collected in the tropical dry forest of the department, which is one of the most threatened and least protected ecosystems in the country; this exacerbated by local problems related with pollution and land-use transformation, threatening the presence and conservation of K. s. scorpioides.

Palabras clave : Colombia; Kinosternidae; record.
