Pleural Lungs - Tumblr Posts

whats up with the 3 slits and feathers on these things, also whats that opening thing you talked about?

the 3 slits are the way the ostomesa respire, i call them pleural lungs they are a form of lungs that the terrestrial ostomesa derived from aquatic ostomesa gills, they inhale hydrogen and exhale diborane

the feather things are their kalriech, which are how they smell and hear, they smell with small olfactory nerve that extends to the end of every thin filament, the structure as a whole is used to hear, with the filaments being hypersensitive, klariech is closer to the fleshy extensions of telluric frog fish than the fur like filaments that cover the rest of their body called archeina

and the glosspharyncal opening is the closable end of their tongue like proboscis
