There is only one species of painted turtle, the Chrysemys picta. It is the most common species of turtle in North America, whose range stretches from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, and the Atlantic to the Pacific. Painted turtles are considered of Least Concern by the IUCN, so they are not endangered.
