Extinct (May 2nd, 2020): Outcompeted by Terroraptorus aquatlanta and Dracowyverious heronus

An evolution of the land-dwelling D. Major, these creatures have adapted to life on both land and water. These adaptations include a longer snout which pushes their max length to up to 12 inches, webbed feet, and a strong, muscular tail to propel itself through the water.

This species of Draco lives in the shallow seas of zone 4, where it hunts P. duraspinus, S. mionsens, and M. armorgedonesis. They are ambush predators, sitting on the sea floor and rising up to the surface when they spot prey. They are able to do so because of their two-tone camouflage, where the top portion of the predator is dark colored like the seafloor, and the belly is as light as the sky. When spotted, prey usually will not survive, as D. major aquatillium is an excellent predator, whose crushing jaws can easy take down its prey. This species of Draco will often eat eggs, and some plant matter, such as seeds and fruits, that fall into the water. These creature mate for life, and lay eggs by burying them on the shoreline. Once they hatch, the young are escorted by their mothers back into the seas, where the male will have a meal for the newborn youngsters. As the young cannot handle taking down large prey, they hide on the leaves and in the roots of T. flotensis until their parents bring back a meal for them to eat. The young have a specialized camouflage that helps them blend in with this species of plant. The parents will raise the young for up to 3-4 months before leaving them to fend for themselves.
