Chelonid

/ˈkɛlənɪd/ noun, adjective

Definition

A member of the turtle family Chelonidae, which includes sea turtles and many freshwater species; or describing characteristics of this family.

Etymology

From 'Chelonidae,' the family name combining Greek 'chelone' (turtle) with the Latin suffix '-idae' used in biological classification to denote a family of organisms.

Kelly Says

Sea turtles, which are chelonids, travel thousands of miles across oceans to return to the exact beach where they were born to lay their own eggs—a navigation feat scientists still don't fully understand!
