		They are also both exclusively marine, and remain in the sea their entire lives, with only the female coming ashore to lay her eggs.
		The main difference between the Dermochelyidae family and the Cheloniidae is in the arrangement of the shell.
		The family Cheloniidae consists of several species: the Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas), the Black Turtle (Chelonia agassizii), the Flatback (Natator depressus), the Hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), the Olive Ridley and the Kemp's Ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea and Lepidochelys kempi).

		Presumably to save on weight and possibly because of a lack in enemies, scales and teeth were being discarded, and there was a reduction in the bony shell, bringing the 13 families of sea turtles of the Late Cretaceous (144 to 65 million years ago) much closer to modern forms (Euro Turtle).
		Today, eight species of sea turtles remain and they are divided into two families: Dermochelyidae and Cheloniidae.
		The lone extant speices in the Dermochelyidae family is the leatherback, and it has many unique qualities that make it stand out from the rest of its sea turlte relatives.

	MTSG Species Information
		The seven classified species of marine turtles cruising the world's oceans all developed from a single, unique group that separated from other turtle species over 100 million years ago.
		This group then split into two families, Cheloniidae and Dermochelyidae, that represent all sea turtles in the world today.
		The family Dermochelyidae is represented solely by the unique Dermochelys coriacea (Leatherback), lacking the hard shell that characterizes other marine turtles.
