The Kimberley Long Neck Turtle (C. (Macrochelodina) walloyarrina) is a large species of long neck turtle endemic to the Kimberley region of Western Australia. In recent years it has been unclear as to whether this was a valid species or not. It has been recognised as such by the latest version of the Turtle Checklist.
