Hadrianus is an extinct genus of tortoise belonging to the Testudinidae^[1] found in the United States, the Yolomécatl Formation of Mexico, the Alai Beds of Kyrgyzstan and Spain^{[citation needed]} and believed to be the oldest true tortoise known.^[3] The genus is thought to be closely related to the genus Manouria.^[3] The genus may have evolved in the subtropics of Asia and subsequently migrated to North America and Europe.^[3]
