Boluo County is said to be the home to the country's largest farm for raising the rare "Golden coin turtle" Cuora trifasciata.

The parents of this hybrid are an Asian Yellow Pond Turtle and the Golden Coin Turtle, with the male apparently usually of the latter species.

Golden coin turtle (Cuora trifasciata) or Chinese three-striped box turtle is a species of turtle endemic to southern China and northern Vietnam.

In addition, the Golden Coin Turtle is suspected to be a parent of the supposed species Chinese False-eyed Turtle and Philippen's Striped Turtle.

Known only from the pet trade type specimens, it recently proved to be a hybrid (Stuart & Parham, 2006) between a male Golden Coin Turtle Cuora trifasciata and a female Sacalia quadriocellata.

The Fujian pond turtle, described as Mauremys iversoni, is a farm bred hybrid, between Yellow pond turtle (usually females) and the Golden coin turtle or Cuora cyclornata (usually males).

"Fujian pond turtles" ("Mauremys" iversoni) are hybrid specimens mainly produced in Chinese turtle farms but possibly occasionally occurring in the wild as well, usually from matings between female Asian Yellow Pond Turtles and Golden coin turtle (Cuora trifasciata) males.

The Fujian Pond Turtle ("Mauremys" x iversoni) is a possibly also naturally occurring intergeneric hybrid turtle in the Geoemydidae family (formerly Bataguridae) produced in larger numbers by Chinese turtle farms as a "copy" of the Golden Coin Turtle Cuora trifasciata.
