Throw frillies into the agamid discussion but I stil think the sailfin dragons get bigger.

Yes they do Hidrosaurus amboinensis to be more preciseI absolutley love that lizard Now the biggest semi aquatic turt I would say Leucocephalon yuonoi (hope I the name is rigth) the Sulawesi wood turtle or Heosemys grandis the giant asiatic pond turt Even bigger is the malaysian giant turt Orlitia borneoensis but this one tends to be more aquatic

Actually, its Hydrosaurus amboinensis...if you want to be really precise.

Surely the largest freshwater turtle in the world is the Critically Endangered Striped Giant Narrow Headed Soft Shell turtle, Chitra chitra, which dwarfs any of the freshwater sp mentioned, and can weigh up to a massive 250kg

So I'm going off here, but I belieave that the largest species of tortoise is the Sulcata tortoise. Which is actully the third largest species of tortoise.

So can anyone think of anything else?
