Description

Mantis-snakes are common predators of the Inners aquatic biomes. These placoderms’ hard-shelled pectoral fins are adapted for catching and gripping prey. They are mostly ambush-hunters but some pelagic species actively pursue their prey with the aid of their strong, unarmored tails. The other species mostly use their tails to dig burrows into soft sediment or to hold on to vegetation while waiting for prey to get close enough to strike.
