The Flattened Musk Turtle (Sternotherus depressus) is a small, critically imperiled musk turtle endemic to the Black Warrior River system in Alabama, USA. With a distinctly flattened shell and a shy, nocturnal nature, it is prized by keepers but almost never captive-bred, and habitat loss has left only about 15% of healthy populations.
