Introduction
There are many species of these dragons, with several legends appearing in the Americas. Three prevalent American amphipthere include Draco-Americanus tex, Draco-Americanus mex, and Drac-Americanus incognito.
Draco-Americanus tex
(American Amphithere or Moth Dragon) is a serpent-like dragon with some very interesting characteristics. Like other amphipthere, it has no or very small legs. It also has been described as very furry with fiery eyes. Its wings span approximately 15ft with a moth like appearance. Its length is similar to its wing span. They are usually green, irredescent purple, red, blue, yellow, or brown and can breathe fire. Their tails are also very deadly, with several thousand pounds of force behind it. Like many dragons, they also rely on their terrible fangs to inflict harm. They eat all kinds of animals, usually those abundant in the area. In the south, their diet is thought to consist of Llama, and the north they are thought to eat buffalo. They build nests off the shore of islands or even lakesides using reeds and other vegetation they can gather in the area.
Draco-Americanus mex
(Mexican Amphithere) is similiar to a Draco-Americanus tex except it has feathery wings instead of moth-like wings and their colorations can also range from an irridescent green, to blue, black, or red. They are on average, a lot bigger than the tex. Their expected wing-span and length is 45 feet.
Draco-Americanus Incognito
(South American Amphithere) Also similar to the Draco-Americanus tex, they are thought to be a rainbow of colors with a length of about 30 feet when fully grown.
