Xenodignathus, More Commonly Called A Strange Bijaw, Is A Small Highly Derived Bijaw, Being The Only

xenodignathus, more commonly called a strange bijaw, is a small highly derived bijaw, being the only obligate herbivorous bijaws, they swim through the bodies of ammonia they inhabit close to the surface in search for anemedromeous, their fins are tiny used almost exclusively to help with steering themselves while they swim, unlike most bijaws they swim in a subcarangiform style as opposed to the spectrum of carangiform to thunniform swimming of every other mature bijaw, though the fry of most bijaw do swim on a spectrum of anguilliform to subcarangiform swimming, this alongside size and fossil evidence points towards neoteny playing a large part in their evolution, they only venture away from the surface if they sense a predator or if they just mated and need to find a safe space to lay their eggs, some species of xenodignathus lay their young in sacs similar to telluric chondrichthyes, if you have any questions about this ichthyongiu please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

Hyloteko, More Commonly Called A Piebald Fakespore, Are Small Ostoexoapo Which Eat The Wood Of Flat Warts,

hyloteko, more commonly called a piebald fakespore, are small ostoexoapo which eat the “wood” of flat warts, as well as the “sap” within them which is rich in nutrients, they tend to mimic clusters of spores that get caught on the sides of the flat warts, they have also been seen eating small ostoexoapo, eggs, and ostomesa bones as well as fresh “marrow”, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

Ichthyoantepod, More Commonly Called A Newttailed Legfish, Are The Closest Living Ichthyongiu Relative

ichthyoantepod, more commonly called a newttailed legfish, are the closest living ichthyongiu relative to gibates, their tail is filled with small spurs made out of a material analogous to telluric cartilage, they are one of the only amphibious organisms on ngiu◗, being able to last up to a day on land, though they are far more comfortable in the ammonia due to their body being adapted for swimming more than terrestrial locomotion, they also lack any form of food on land due to the way their digestive system and teeth are structured, they usually only leave the ammonia they inhabit to avoid predation from histocephalus or troops of nectosarcus, though the amount of terrestrial predators make this risky, they also will frequently leave the body of ammonia they inhabit to wander to a close by different body of ammonia, their diet primarily consists of sifting through the substrate they walk over as well as scraping lapsiphyte off of rocks, as well as rarely scraping flesh off of bones the same way, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than willing to answer

Cylindostraco, More Commonly Called A Rolling Clearback, These Are Small Ostoexoapo Which Have The Closest

cylindostraco, more commonly called a rolling clearback, these are small ostoexoapo which have the closest thing to a true exoskeleton a coelostracan can get, being an almost skin tight shell which has very little in terms of pigmentation, this is due to specialized structures on their back similar to the chromatophores of telluric cephalopods which let them camouflage to match the colour of their environment, if they feel threatened they will roll into a ball and use their shell to ward off their prey, similar to telluric isopods, they have been observed using their colour adjustment to attract mates, flashing bright vibrant colours in unique patterns in hopes of showing their fitness to their mate, if the mate reciprocates they will also flash trying to match their potential mates pattern, they will then mate and go their separate ways, laying their young in nutrient rich areas like fruits and nuts, they eat eggs and larvae of ostoexoapo as well as the sap flowing through sedereamischos, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

Gigagnathid, More Commonly Called A Steppe Tick, Are Small Ostoexoapo With Small Spurs On Their Proboscises

gigagnathid, more commonly called a steppe tick, are small ostoexoapo with small spurs on their proboscises which help them get access to the blood of the ostomesa they make their hosts, they tend to lay their eggs in small sacs similar in function to burs on their hosts, and when the eggs are close to hatching the burs will fall apart and let the eggs fall into the moss around them, half of the eggs laid in the sack are unfertalized, and linked almost one to one with each egg as an extra bit of nutrients to help them mature, they will then climb onto a moss sprout and wait for an ostomesa to pass by and then crawl onto them and crawl up to their torso and then begin feeding, their proboscis is largely inflexible and they use their legs to cling onto their host, they are largely self fertile though if they encounter another gigagnathid on a host they will exchange genetic material and store it for the next clutch of eggs they lay, if you have any questions about these organisms please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

Deinopteryx, More Commonly Called A Flying Buzzer, Are Small Uking Which Take On A Similar Role To Telluric

deinopteryx, more commonly called a flying buzzer, are small uking which take on a similar role to telluric fruit flies, flying around the steppe till they find fruit or nuts, they will then feed on it and if they encounter another deinopteryx they will mate with them and then dig into a fruit or a nut cluster and lay their eggs, flying buzzer larvae have two morphs before maturity, one is hardier and has a proboscis specialized with “teeth” and enzyme rich saliva to help break up the nuts whereas the other is faster and more gracile and has a proboscis specialized with flexible muscles around the end of the proboscis to help bring the flesh of the fruits into their mouth, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please don't be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer
