alcesiceratus, more commonly called a giant stabber, are large solitary seelenlos, which feed on the plants that litter the forest floor, they are the second largest seelenlos in the maschoran forest, and use their horns primarily during intraspecies conflict and mating displays, though if threatened by a large enough flock of predatory seelenlos they will use them as weaponry for self defense, they are also highly territorial and will usually fight other alcesiceratus in their territory unless they wish to mate, but if the other alcesiceratus doesn’t wish to mate it will usually end in a fight, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

nemaursus, more commonly called a redtailed mouse, are arboreal seelenlos which lack the tapetum lucidum typical of most nihlimus, most likely due to its close relation to diamus, they climb around on the pseudokladi which create a canopy alongside smaller trees, nemaurus primarily eat eggs and ostoexoapo, though they will oppertunistically scavenge, their feet have small claws which help them keep a grip on the branches they walk on, due to their lack of tapetum lucidum they generally tend to be crepuscular and have highly reactive klariech compared to other nihlimus, they use their tails to keep themselves steady while sleeping in the canopy, as well as for display during mating rituals, though the red colouration makes them an easier target for predators, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

smilodactyl, more commonly called a scittering snouter, are small fox like seelenlos which are the closest living relative of the grabbing snouters on the fungal steppes, these grothiabates cling to the trunks of trees or burrow into the ground during the day to rest, sleeping on the trunk of a tree leaves them pretty out in the open for any carnivore which wants to eat them, theyve evolved to be almost the exact colour of the trunks they cling too, their hands are covered in small thin hooks of brachodas which they use for gripping and also defense under specific circumstances, if you have any questions about this organism please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

psittacocheri, more commonly called a fern grazer, are dexterous seelenlos, they commonly eat seed ferns and unintentionally spread their bur like seeds, they are capable of arboreality and use that skill to avoid predation, they will stay with their mate until their kits are grown and then will move on, however unlike most terrestrial ostomesa with a similar lifestyle psittacocheri parents will fertilize their mates eggs as well as lay their own, psittacocheri kits will hold onto their parents backs when theyre young and when they get older its only to traverse rough terrain or to avoid predation, they usually build nests at the bases of trees and if they cant defend that nest they will hold their eggs and climb up said trees and hope the predator leaves, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

cynomimus, more commonly called a skittish stalker, are small nocturnal ostomesa, they wander the maschoran forests at nighttime, and will scavenge on corpses they find, and will even attack sleeping prey if they are confident enough or desperate enough, they are highly territorial towards other cynomimids, however are very jumpy in regards to other ostomesa, they have been noted to follow ostomesa to their nests and then eat their eggs and young, theyve also been known to prey on small seelenlos, theyve widely been considered pests by the ◗ta due to their opportunistic nature, as well as them being quite intuitive, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

monocanthakrossos, more commonly called a stripetailed frill, are small seelenlos which riddle the maschoran forest, they have a unique trait in their distal digits on their forelimbs have an odd amount of flexibility being near opposable, their frill, like other members of their clade, is covered in tuberculate scales derived from suppressed archeina, they are very social organisms and use their tails to help communicate with each other, their diet is primarily composed of seeds and ostoexoapo, though they will opportunistically scavenge on corpses and fruits if they find them, they use their frill as a threat display alongside their oddly long fangs, unlike most members of their clade they dont use their frill for sexual display, instead using the stripes on their tail, monocanthakrossos chicks wont have these distinctive stripes instead having solid coloured tails or speckled tails, if you have any questions about this frilled seelenlos

pterolestes, more commonly called a wreath grazer, are flying seelenlos which are considered quite a pest among ◗ta settlements near and inside maschoran forests, due to their cocky nature and frequent theft, though they are less of a problem than telluric seagulls or pigeons due to them ranging from nocturnal to crepuscular, though a more modern trend for pterolestes is being cathemeral, pterolestes will usually build their nests near large patches of prygoanthids due to them being their primary food source, during hard times they will resort to eating its tubers and flowers, however they usually just settle for the nectar and fruit of the sedereamischos, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

pseudokladi, more commonly called a bifurcated branches, are parasitic sedereamischos which build themselves around the trunks of the trees of maschoras forests, they also put their hardy seeds into the fruits and nuts of the trees they attach themselves too, due to the nature of most trees in the maschoran forest, pseudokladi act as the branches that make up the canopy in these forests, when they first grow they are a small hardy piece of moss with roots that will search for the nearest tree, usually when they find the tree they will make a small spur of moss near the base of the tree and then absorb the roots they produce from their starting point and move towards the tree and start building up the tree and branching out with leaves and such, if you have any questions please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

chartipteris, more commonly called a seed fern, are sedereamischos which superficially resemble telluric ferns, they grow seeds off the base of their stem and slowly push them up as they develop, eventually growing into small burr like structures which latch onto the seelenlos which eat them and allows them to spread fast, their closest living relatives the mountain dwelling herbanumquam, though relying primarily on the burrs for reproduction their seeds if undisturbed enough will form into a durable shell surrounding the seed creating a nut like structure which will be eaten by herbivorous seelenlos and passed through their digestive system to a newer location, if you have any questions please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

pyrgoanthus, more commonly called a village flower, are odd sedereamischos which fill the clearings of the maschoran forests, they photosynthetic tower converged on the wreath on a drekols tail, the flowers surrounding the tower cannot survive without being connected to the root system of a pyrgoanthus due to the lack of photosynthetic cells, the “petals” of pyrgoanthid flowers are a tough stiff material, presumably derived from the wood that makes them up, the leaf on the top of the tower is surrounded with small pores releasing a constant flurry of spores which are designed to glide for kilometres until they interact with another pyrgoanthid which they will then absorb the genetic material and impliment it into their fruit that they reproduce once they have enough resources and gamates, the leaf on the top of their tower will slowly grow into a bright red fruit, if you have any questions about this sedereamischos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

xyloendodendron, more commonly called tree fuzz, are small minimalistic parasitic sedereamischos, they will cover the trunks of the trees and can reproduce in two ways, either through budding, or through latching their moss filaments onto arboreal seelenlos which will eventually fall off onto a new spot in the maschoran forest and grow into a new xyloendodendron, they can get out of hand rather fast when a tree is young or dying, being able to cover an entire tree over the span of a year if uninterrupted, their roots absorb nutrients from the trees trunk and let them last without photosynthetic material for several days even when fully mature, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

cyclotrypta, more commonly called a eyed wart, are small highly toxic solumykitas, which produce more spores than any known maschoran solumykitas, widely considered to be a bad omen in ◗ta, due to the toxicity and spore production usually causing nearby seelenlos to become sick over prolonged exposure, while it is usually not fatal and can be treated the sickness is painful and debilitating, though most seelenlos just steer clear of cyclotryptas, some ostoexoapo have adapted to survive near it and even eat them, such as xenodiaitapterus and mixistoma, xenodiaitapterus being scavengers will be in prolonged contact with cyclotrypta and having the ability to be immune is almost a necessity, though some xenodiapitapterus have taken it even a step further and have started eating the cyclotrypta, whereas mixistoma are only immune during adulthood which means they have to build their nursery in places where the spores could not possibly reach, mixistoma will use the toxicity as a defense to keep their colonies safe, some colonies even going so far as to feed the eyed wart, as a rudimentary form of domestication, if you have any questions about this solumykitas please dont be afraid to ask i am more than happy to answer

sarcoraptor, more commonly called a gliding cutter, are small gliding ostoexoapo, which are the closest living relative to the lampoelytron, they use long flat wide extensions of their shell to glide across the canopy of the machoran forests, due to their low weight and size they can glide for extremely prolonged periods of time, they use their dexterous foremost forelimbs to cut off small bits of skin of ostomesa as well as forcefully pull smaller ostomesa out of their shells and kill them, in their larval state they will usually eat eggs and ambush other larval ostoexoapo, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please don't be afraid to ask i'm more than happy to answer

mixistoma, more commonly called nectar mixers, are small almost eusocial ostoexoapo, they are highly social compared to their relatives, and will create very large colonies to inhabit under the maschoran forest floor, through specific processes in a section of their foregut, they can turn moss and petals into a waxy substance they use to store their eggs in, maintain the structure of their colonies, and store nectar, they have converged on a behaviour similar to telluric bees, by churning pyrgoanthid nectar and mixing it with their saliva using their hindmost forelimbs to create a energy dense thick substance comparable to honey, their colonies have several specified “rooms” such as, store rooms for food and petals, nurserys where they keep larvae and eggs, and graveyards at the bottom of their colonies where they drop dead mixistomas they find in or near their colonies, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

phytofonias, more commonly called a leaf threader, are very small ostoexoapo which reproduce completely asexually, once they mature they will eat nearby plants almost nonstop over the span of a week and then will lay hundreds of eggs on every remaining leaves and mosses, widely considered a pest to ◗ta due to this fact, since they are capable of completely descimating crop fields between hatching and egg laying, fortunately for the plants of the maschoran forests most eggs are stillborn and they are preyed on by most small carnivorous organisms in the maschoran forests, they also have a long period between laying and hatching, due to their small size and odd life cycle they are theorized to have descended from a common ancestor of corpse leeches of the fungal steppe, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask i am more than happy to answer

biotapsora, more commonly called a scab tick, are very small seelenlos which are only visible after theyve begun feeding on their hosts, they have very flexible shells compared to other terrestrial ostoexoapo, which is useful to them since even though theyre very barebones under their shell, which is meant to be filled when they drink the blood of their hosts, they will run out of room relatively fast due to their size, they will begin to feed on their hosts after latching their legs into the skin of their host, they will routinely unlatch their legs and move them further out to accommodate their fastly changing size, their eyes are almost nonfunctional, only really capable of detecting movement, when they are ready they will release themselves off of their hosts and adjust their digestive system to be essentially an egg making factory, using any remaining nutrients to produce as many eggs as possible, once, they will die once producing their maximum amount of eggs due to the production speed, most eggs being still contained within their body, once these eggs hatch the larvae will eat other nearby eggs and their oviparents remains as well as any other nearby flesh, they will then use their eyes which function slightly better than their mature forms, they will look up around their surroundings and if theyre lucky they will find a host before they mature and latch on with specialized radula to said host, if they are less lucky they will climb onto a nearby plant or rock and use said specialized radula to latch onto it while they mature, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

xenodiaitapterus, more commonly called an infesting uking, are generalist scavengers which will fly around the maschoran forest and eat any rotting matter they come across, they are widely considered pests due to them accelerating the decomposition process, they will usually mate with whatever xenodiaitapterids they find around decaying matter while they feed and then lay a few eggs in the matter and fly away, leading to a plentiful meal for the larvae under the right conditions, on a large enough corpse infesting uking will be able to spend several days on the corpse before leaving it for their young, unlike most uking they rely on their radula more than the acidic enzymes their proboscis since the majority of their eating process relies on the intensive mastication done by their radula, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to answer

astomaverm, more commonly called a wood worm, are unique ostoexoapo which fill the plants of the maschoran forest, their life cycle is rather unique to ostoexoapo having three life stages compared to the usual two life stages most ostoexoapo have, similar to most ostoexoapo they have their larval stage where they lack their shells and have no reproductive organs, they have a second stage which most ostoexoapo dont have, which is a stage similar to their larval stage where they have thicker skin, similar to a telluric velvet worm, and also functional reproductive organs, though they are incapable of laying eggs in this life stage, once they fully mature they gain their shell and lose the ability to eat, going so far as to lose their stomach, they wander around laying small clutches of about 5 eggs inside empty holes they find on any form of wood they find, this leads to a trend of large hoards of astomaverm bursting out of infested pieces of wood every year, if you have any questions about this seelenlos please dont be afraid to ask im more than happy to tell you
