Fislanki Death Turtle

Fislankemys thanatos, or as it is commonly known the Fislanki Death Turtle, was a Suchochelid turtle from the Cuiciloan period, living between 52 and 46 million years ago. Named after the city of Fislankif on the island of Arcturus (currently part of Eisenland), where it was first found, this turtle was one of the largest of its kind measuring at around 2.4 meters in length. It probably filled the same ecological niche that crocodilians filled in other parts of Rathnir, as crocodile fossils are absent from the strata of the Arcturus Mudstone- the formation in which the turtle was found.

The original holotype was brought to the Lhûmar Imperial Museum of Natural History by, where it was formally described by Dr. Tara Sauranis et al. in 937 ACA. However, the holotype specimen would be lost in a bandit raid on the city shortly thereafter on the first of August that year. Two paratype specimens are known, one of which is currently on display at the LIMNH.
