I think you mean "Emydoidea", and I think you're laboring under a particularly naive interpretation of Mayr's Biological Species Concept. Not having the Herpetological Review articles you reference handy (in part because Herp. Review lags in the dark ages without an online version) I don't know the details of the situation, however.
