There are eight species of sea
turtles in the world; six of them nest on the coasts of Central America, and
four make their home on the Salvadoran coast: the leatherback turtle
(Dermochelys coriacea), the hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), the Green Sea
turtle (Chelonia agasizzii) and the olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea). Of
these four species, the most common is the Olive Ridley turtle, followed by the
brown (black) turtle. The other two species, Hawksbill and Leatherback, are
much more difficult to find as they are critically endangered, while the Olive
Ridley and brown (black) turtle are in danger of extinction.
