Some of the running lasmars do not take it to the trees. Instead, they continue to adapt into faster creatures.
Their legs have grown longer, and their body has morphed into a shape that better augments their running. These fast lasmars run with a bouncing gait, that allows them to quickly alter their direction, make quick dodging moves and bounce unpredictably, confusing their predators. Their last pair of limbs have atrophied into small tentacle like appendages that help the creatures balance.

The Bouncing lasmars move in herds, grazing on the plant life of the plains. When threatened,these herds will spring into fast dashing, scattering around and confusing the attackers.

The Greater Mud Grubs continue to bloat, growing even larger in their growth spurt periods. the weight of their bodies has begun to cause them to become lower to the ground, their legs growing in width to compensate. The foliage on their back is now more like a miniature ecosystem in of itself, with trees bushes and other jungle flora making their home in the dirt encrusted backs of the Mud Grubs. The dung they leave behind contains large amounts of the seeds they consume, leaving them in rich deposits for future growth, meaning that over time they could cause the jungle to spread and its 'borders' to shift.
The average specimen has grown to reach sizes of about 32 feet tall, 64 feet long and 64 feet wide.

>>22025225
Covered in thousands of pores, the Usmal sustains its need for water and air. The large spots are breathing holes, nostrils if you'd like to think of it that way.

The tiny pores leak water stored in the plant to keep it moisturized, reabsorbed, filtered and "sweated" out again.

These plants sustain their size by a vast woody root system. Some of these roots can be over 3 yards in length. The increase in size correlated into a larger demand, the soil is often dried up if too many Usmals are in one place.

Only when the plant dies does it reproduce, seed pods locked in the centres of the starchy masses are nourished by the corpse of their parent, reinvigorating the soil. That said, the typical lifespan of an Usmal Trifecta is almost 20 years, so when they're found, they're rarely in large groups.

Some of the Snaruu that followed behind the Mud Grubs and Greater Mud Grubs have begun to eat the antidote fruits that fall off the bushes on their backs. This has caused them to lose a large amount of their toxicsity. They have begun storing the fruits in the solution in their large boil, soaking it with the fluids there. The fluids have begun to take on characteristics similar to vinegar. Their consumption of these fruits has caused them to move in closer to the Mud Grubs and their larger kin, with them tending to the plants, pulling off various leaf eating insects and other small competitors for the fruits.

Layers of these sacs are present all through out the Mud Grubs body, all concentrating on diverting weight to the legs. Sacs can be emptied to fill in less full sacs, but all of them require water, forcing the Mud Grubs to stay near sources of water. In times of dehydration, they Now Mud Grubs can grow ever larger.

>>22030953
The yarrog/grenog herds adopt a more nomadic behaviour in order to survive their many uncany predators.
They don't hesitate any more to abandon a dump field if the environment gets too hostile.
They sometime create new dump feilds or turn between a bunch of their favoured spots.
If a dump field remains unvisited for a while, a sessile tree may emerge.
This tree will only grow to maturity if a hivog colony comes to live in.

>>22031673
As the females are not anymore able to move, the males develop a ventral pocket at late age to take a few babies when they go in seek of a new hive.

The genetic diversity is kept by the young wandering males that comes to take off the females with a yeshedling gift.
The number of hives increases a bit with each discover of an abandoned dump feild.

Alright, three evos in one go. Everything but the Seola roots are ideas courtesy of Sockmister and Molden.

Some freolas develops a new, better way of spreading their spores. These freolas live along the river, and the river tends to spread their spores as well, if not better than the wind. These freolas develop downward facing pods, so that their spores more easily float down to the river where they are swept away. They also develop stronger root systems to keep them in place as river banks are eroded. We'll call these new freolas, Seolas

Some River Lras develop an especially nasty root system. Their roots develop into a wide web that stick out into the water, catching debris like dirt and minerals, but also small animals that are sometimes caught in its nets. The animals die and decompose, adding to the nutrients in the River lras's soil. Net Lras

Finally, a branch of Chan emerges. It has little bulbs at the tips of those tendrils. These bulbs make electrical charges and movements that mimic those of smaller wlouz. When a predator snaps at the blubs, the Chan releases a cloud of spores that is then carried off by the predator, spreading them everywhere. Blub Chans

they now wait in the branches of trees, sitting motionless until something lumbers beneath them before they leap down onto the prey and stab it with their stingers and then hopping away and rebounding off of nearby foliage to repeat the attack. If they cannot perform this method of attack, they instead make the initial leap and then shred their prey with their strengthened forelimbs.

File: 1355488778520.png-(44 KB, 280x480, NomadYaced.png)

The behavior changes of the Crown of Thorns Yaced have snowballed into more extensive and complicated behavior. The fungus now grows exclusively in large nomadic groups numbering anywhere from 50-300+ individual fungi. These fungus now are also exclusively nomadic through the jungles.

As they approach a new feeding ground, the caravan of fungus will begin to spread out as to surround the fresh patch of both living and dead flora and fauna. It is at this point that the caravan is at its most vulnerable to being picked at by opportunistic predators. However, if left relativity unhindered, the caravan will surround it's new feeding ground and begin laying down thick mycelial cords that serve as arteries for both sharing the plant's limited communication as well as moving water and nutrients.

>>22038118
Once the caravan has secured the area, individuals begins spreading spores in thick clouds that stay low to the ground, to allow for the most contact with other fungus. These spores make up the new generation of Nomad Yaced. During the reproductive stage of their life, areas filled with Nomad Yaced are deadly to most creatures up to a moderate to large size, from thick clouds of highly potent paralytic and neurotoxic spores and gasses. These highly potent toxins are only released during reproduction, to ensure the next generation of Yaced have the best chance possible.

After the area has been seeded with the new generation of Yaced, the mature members of the caravan disconnect from their mycelial cords and begin to migrate to the next feeding ground, leaving the new fungi to mature and move on as a new nomadic caravan.

It is important to note that the fungus do little to no damage to the living plants in the areas they "camp." Only dead plants and living or dead animals concern the fungus, as they do not want to destroy their source of dead vegetation (a more common and reliable food source than carrion or live animals.)

The Toxoced create an alernation of the hallucinogenic substance. They use it at a special occasion as it causes the victim to enter a deep sleep. During this time, the mature Toxoced creeps over the victim and through the uses of a special secretion, it plants a small megaspore into the host organisms body. Through the secretion, the megaspore remains virtually undetected by the hosts body and immune system. For a time, the spore remains dormant. If the host dies, the spore becomes a young Toxoced inside the rotting corpse. If nothing happens to the host, the spore secretes hallucinogenic substances or the strong neurotoxin, which one way or another will lead to the death of the host. This whole process is an alternative reproductive strategy for the Toxoced. It is only used, when the megaspores are ripe and the Toxoced could n't find any decent decomposing matter nearby. All animals may be affected if they are big enough to carry a megaspore.

When these sporangia grow mature, covered by a layer of algae, they explode and spread both symbioced spores and algae cells over the land.
However, they are only able to grow if they land on an abandoned dump field but they don't need colonisation anymore.
These trees are pretty rare as are the methan cheney.

The tentacles increase the production of poisonous glue.
They become able to spread this alginate-based mucus over the bushes to trap insects.
This new weaponry requires a greater intake of sugars and fibers. They start to use a second food source. They tend to eat the top branches of the symbioced trees.

Prigos become more agrresive with the presence of new predators. Their claws become cured to inflict nasty wounds, and their beaks shorten, so that they don't get in the way of the claws, and make it easier for them to turn around in their tunnels

Let's throw some!
Due to their curious nature and for fuck's sake, some yarrog herds with limited number of grenogs have been eating limited quantities of blueced.
They slowly learnt to resist to their paralytic toxin. It's not a genetic resistance, it's a mithridatization due to their behaviour.
As they did for the chitine, they add the blue-glowing molecule to their shell.

The pale ones gripping tentacles become slightly longer and more dexterous. This allows them to do a lot more. Occasionally they will be seen throwing rocks, or using a rock as a mace head with their flailing tentacles.

The Hoballs became more interested in bigger prey. For this small pinchers and feeder tentacles have been evolved. No longer feeding on plankton the colony ensures that all specimens gain nutrition from a successful hunt. To facilitate this nutrition transport bridges have appeared which indirectly connect the neighboring specimens.

The new reproducitive strategy became more widespreaded, in 1 about 3 cases Toxoceds reproduce via implanting a megaspore into a sedated host. The incubation times lenghten and in most cases, the fungal being begins to grow inside the host. The Toxoced became more and more chemically adapted to their host as they gain the ability to assimilate some of the hosts proteins. A host, containing a growing megaspore is usually not sick, it is being urged to feed more. Death and release may come in many ways. Sometimes the fungi kills the host with neurotoxins, drives them to fatal accident by hallucination. Or they get eaten by predators and as the spore is very strong, it usually survives the feeding process one way or another. If the host is dead, a free living form of the Toxoced starts to grow inside the decomposing body.

The yarrog herds can bear the loss of some individuals and were pretty safe with the grenogs around.
But those blue oddballs have gotten very affected by the toxoced's new strategy because of the fact that they don't travel next to grenogs anymore.

Their survival would not have been possible if they did not try a new odd behaviour.
They started to hunt the boil snaaru who feed besides the lesser mudgrubs and hea themselves with their anti-toxoced fruit fluid.
The nightsky wlouz and the gluenet wlouz find their antidote by directly consuming a fruit.
It does not become a food source, just a cure like catnip.

The greated mudgrubs have a very long life of feeding. But when the mighty falls, they become a huge meatfield.
The subspecies of pincer-wezar that have established in the ulbus sproudis and stakkis that have grown upon the border of the jungle may turn to a scavenger behaviour.

Another split from the leatherhead line. This branch becomes bigger, beefier, stronger (better, faster). Their claws lengthen, to be able to slash open throats with ease. Tails grow to counterbalance a new, immense weight. The head elongates to deliver devestating bites. Thus is born the new alpha predator of the Jungles: The Letherus

This is a harsh world and pressure is enormus, but the Toxoced prevails. The new reproductive parasitism proved to be fruitful as it enchanted the Toxoced as a whole. All the different preys mean different environments which require careful adaptation. The Toxoced does this by assimilating the hosts chemical compositure. Through generations, more and more Toxoced became familiar with more and more specimens of the fauna. Different behavioral adaptations have appeared to deal with the different preys, hosts and threats. The adult form of the Toxoced has changed a lot, the fungus tissue structure is quite flexible. Upon using camouflage new structures may be created over the body to more precisely resemble anything the Toxoced wants to copy. Inside the body of the Toxoced, more and more fungal filaments take on the role of a nervous system which is required for these adaptations.

The predatory lifestyle of the Hoball comes with a greater mineral salt intake and the need for better protection. Plaques of bone like tissue appear in the mucus outer layer. The pinchers become this bony substance, further enchanting the predational capabilities.

The bouncing lasmars take to the plains even more. Their arms, of little use since they're herbivores that feed on plentiful lras, atrophy further, till they are merely little things. They are still around, present only for "tickling" during mating by the male.

The feet change a great deal though. They gain a hard outer covering, which makes them more durable, and able to withstand greater stress, and better at applying force to a small area. Now the Bouncing lasmars run, more then bounce, though they still bounce when feeling playful. They are the most prominent, and common, herbivore of the plains. We shall call them Sleignurs

The Hoballs became more sclerotized thus gaining more protection and supporting tissues.

>>22059174
With the increase on the toxoced population, some grenogs started to hunt them more eagerly, conducting them to leave the herds. Their breathe were to become unbearable to every living creature.
They grown on size and bulkiness (1.5 the size of the original).
Their plates turned white to signal their dangerous nature as this colour is yet rather unused in the jungle and easy to spot.
The armor also became tougherto deal with the new predator as the herd doesn't protect them anymore.They also ust their toxic breath as a medium of defense against every threat.

Their muscular claws and verry fitted body allows them to perform both agility and strength allowance.
They jump at their prey with such power it almost kills it on hit.
They are also able to easily climbon tree and perform huge moonsaults without hurting themselves.
They are big, only fear the toxodragons and pretty rare.
Toxoceds are also a threat for them.

The Greater Mud Grubs, lets call them Mother Grubs, Have grown to immense sizes. Their water sacks now fill from bottom up, the bottom ones bloating with the majority of the fluids they absorb, putting most of their weight on the lower portions of their bodies. This causes their backs to become flatter in comparison, housing their forests more readily. Their metabolism slows immensly, causing their foraging rampages to happen only every decade or so. the rest of the time they spend their time buried in the soft earth, their backs merging with the surrounding terrain. they use their large tongues while buried to pull roots from nearby plants. The Mother grub now grows to roughly 150 feet tall by 300 feet long.

To combat the Toxodragon threat the Toxoced has evolved further, enchanting it's mimicking capabilities. Now it is on the route to become a real shapeshifter, an impostor, which waits for the perfect moment to strike or just hide in plain sight. From now on they shall be called as Morphoced.
The morphoced is a lot bigger than it's ancestor and still has all the different types of spores. It is able to remarkably shape it's body, except for the great spores. The Morphoced has more central spore orbs ensuring it's survival. One of them is becoming the core for the neural fungal filament network. It is body is made up entirely of false tissues, able to change into other tissue types in a few minutes. This requires a lot of energy, and the Morphoced is a cunning and smart predator. It still needs a rotting corpse or some decomposing nutritions to feed upon.

>>22061633
Ok, the Toxodragons gain a strong scent to spot the toxomorphers. Those toxodittos can't hide from them anymore.
Still toxodragons are verry rare oddballs. They merely keep the thing balanced.
