Amyda is a genus of softshell turtles in the family Trionychidae. It contains two extant species:^[2]

Amyda cartilaginea - Asiatic softshell turtle
Amyda ornata - Southeast Asian softshell turtle

Both species were formerly considered subspecies of a single species, Amyda cartilaginea, but phylogenetic evidence supports both being distinct from one another. An undescribed species is also known from Borneo.^[3]

The fossil taxon †'Amyda' gregaria from the Eocene of Inner Mongolia has been tentatively placed in the genus Trionyx.^[4]

When it comes to the eating habits of Amyda, considering its multiple species, they are known for being opportunist omnivores. Their diet consists mainly of plants and fish.^[5]
