Depicted Animals

Dermochelys coriacea  (VANDELLI, 1761)
2.5 M    

Common names: (English • Deutsch • Français • Español) - Leatherback sea turtle • Lederschildkröte • Tortue luth • Tortuga laúd
Systematics: Dermochelyidae, Cryptodira, Testudines, Sauropsida, Reptilia
Habitat: marine, tropical and subtropical seas; pelagic

The leatherback sea turtle is the largest living turtle and can easily be distinguished from other extant sea turtles by the lack of a bony shell. Instead oily flesh under the integument of the body causes a leathery texture of the skin. This rather deep diving reptile has the most hydrodynamic body design of any sea turtle and a pair of large, flattened forelimbs (flippers) tapering towards their ends, like wings, which are be used for underwater flight.
