Oviodont, More Commonly Called A Colony Destroyer, Are Thin Durable Ostoexoapo Which Will Invade Brachiodontostoma

oviodont, more commonly called a colony destroyer, are thin durable ostoexoapo which will invade brachiodontostoma nests once they mate and inject many brachiodontostoma with eggs using their ovipositor, their in the same clade as other flat ostoexoapo however their shell has become compressed to make themselves durable, having thinner parts of their shell in a form of invisible segmentation, this makes them flexibly mobile and well protected, if theyre lucky they will find an exit of the colony once they finish their attack, and continue with their lives, they usually will attempt to find the monarch of the colony to incubate their eggs and will seek out the foodstores and eat what they find and then attempt to leave, their eggs take 4 days after laying to hatch and the young will then begin to eat the colony from the inside out and the entire group of oviodont young will be able to desimate an entire colony in a matter of hours, once they all mature they will leave the abandoned colony and find a mate to continue the cycle, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask i am more than willing to answer

podocanth, more commonly called a skin tick, are small ostoexoapo which use their spiny feet to root themselves onto their hosts and then begin drinking their blood, their shell is rather hollow compared to most ostoexoapo, and they use that extra space for their stomach to expand into as they digest blood, they usually attach themselves to a host while they are still in their larval form, relying on their proboscis to stay attached until they mature, they will fall off their host if they smell a particular chemical that [in the maschoran desert at least] only emits from ambidendroanthid seedheads, which is used to deter seelenlos from eating them, they will make their way onto the seedhead and lay eggs and mate with other podocanths if there are any, their eggs are coated in a sticky mucus like substance that keeps them attached to the seeds allowing them to spread fast and far, if you have any questions about this ostoexoapo please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

parahwta, more commonly called a forest stalker, are interesting seelenlos, being the closest living relative to the ◗ta, theyre quite smart organisms, capable of tool use under certain circumstances, as well as having a similar vocalization skill to ◗ta, though they usually communicate through small chirps and whistles, but are capable of mimicking words or similar sounds, giving them another common name of forest whispers, similar to their sophont relatives they are generalists however unlike their relatives they are hypocarnivores as opposed to the mesocarnivorous ◗ta, parahwta are facultative quadrupeds being able to shift between bipedal locomotion and quadrupedal locomotion depending on the scenario, they have become quite the nuisance to settlements nearby or within the maschoran forests do to them liking shiny objects and attempting to steal them from ◗ta, if you have any questions about this ◗ta relative please do not be afraid to ask i am more than happy to answer

somacephalus, more commonly called a ammonia skidder, are ostoexoapo which have superficially converged on the mobility of a telluric water skidder, their hindset of limbs are coated in an ammoniaphobic fluid which combined with their posture allows them to stay on the surface of the body of ammonia they live on, they arent very efficient walkers on land and prefer to drag themselves with their foreset of limbs towards the closest body of ammonia, their primary food source is ammonianthus nectar which they use their foreset of limbs to bring up to their proboscis which they will also extend, their foremost forelimbs have evolved into a set of hornlike structures which they use as display as well as anchoring themselves on the cores of ammonianthids while mating and laying eggs, their eggs are very hardy and will be layed on or inside developing ammonianthid fruits and will be swallowed by macrodermaderes and will survive their digestive system and will usually find themselves in another oasis or body of ammonia with many seeds of ammonianthids, their cladistics have been subject to many debates but recent genetic testing and fossil evidence shows they are part of the same clade as brachiodontostoma and xylostomas, branching off just before the common ancestor of those two, if you have any questions about this seelenlos at all please dont be afraid to ask i am more than happy to answer

lycoperiergo, more commonly called a longfaced snapper, are forest dwelling relatives of pouched snappers of the steppes, they are commonly found in groups of 3-5 called kettles, they are some of the few ovoviviparious ostomesa on maschora, internalizing their eggs until they hatch and giving birth to chicks directly, they are primarily carnivorous but will opportunistically eat plants, similar to their steppebound relatives they use a tuft of colourful archeina as a display feature, for both disputes between kettles as well as internal mating disputes, they usually have a clutch of 6-8 chicks, which once reaching maturity leave the kettle, their bottom jaws have specialized teeth which keep their prey in their mouths, these fangs are also constantly growing similar to the teeth of telluric rodents, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask i am more than happy to answer
