While the event was worldwide, in this thread we will focus solely on the continent Florainsuram and it's inhabitants.
The continent is composed of the following areas:

Northern Fields: Flat region, encased almost entirely in ice but taking up about 3/5 of the continent.
Avg Temp: -10°C (-3°C highest, -30°C lowest)
Weather: Cool winds, snowfall

Eastern Fields: Flat region, bountiful in natural resources.
Avg Temp: -2°C (8°C highest, -12°C lowest)
Weather: Cool winds, rain and snowfall

Mountain Range: Rocky, steep mountains, with large supplies of minerals but low organic content.
Avg Temp -20°C(0°C highest, -40 lowest)
Weather: Winds at high altitudes, snowfall

Southern Fields: Flat region, every year it is flooded for a few months.
Avg Temp: 4°C (14°C highest, 0°C lowest)
Weather: Cool winds, rain and snowfall, seasonal floods

Southern Islands: Islands near the Southern Fields, which also sustain seasonal floods.
Avg Temp: 4°C (12°C highest, -3°C lowest)
Weather: Cool winds, rain and snowfall, seasonal floods

Leaf Mats: Living islands, abundant in food and warmer than other areas, but often very small.
Avg Temp: 10°C (15°C highest, 7°C lowest)
Weather: Cool winds, rain and snowfall

CREATURES THAT INHABIT THE CONTINENT: https://imgur.com/a/O2dAg3z
Those marked with "E" are endangered species, with the reason for their endangerment being written below the "E", and will soon go extinct, leaving their niches empty and likely collapsing the ecosystem if a replacement creature for that niche doesn't appear in time.

In addition, every species except inhabitants of the ocean and leaf mats will need to choose what part of the continent they live in.

As a reaction to the cold, beyblue palms start diverting their blue pigment from their roots to their palms, increasing its concentration and darkening the leaves. This increases the amount of energy they can extract from sunlight.
As a side effect, the fruits are also more packed with pigment, which gives them a distinctive taste.

Guncrabs stock fat ; their posture shifts forwards as they become permanent quadrupeds. The blowholes now pointing downwards, their cavitation bubbles are repurposed as a high-pressure bubble cloud which they use to conceal their flight when startled.

The HagBack Shoff fights against the cold by evolving a complex digestion system that provides considerable warmth, at the cost of a larger and more identifiable profile.

The light spots on their body grow with age, this has the added bonus of being more sexually appealing.

A rapid development in Grundleshoff morphology has been observed since the onset of the current ice age. Within a small number of generations, a variety that can retract their sails has gained dominance. This decreases their surface area to shed less heat during the harsh nights, but in the daytime they have been seen extending their sails to frighten predators and compete for mates.

This is the first time Ive posted or seen any of these threads so please tell me if I'm doing anything wrong.

Due to dwindling food sources due to the cold, the Grundleshoff starts looking for other food supplies, such as small animals. A rare variation has been found in the Southern Fields that has a few sharp-ish front teeth that makes it easier to eat small animals, that are usually dead, because its jaws and teeth are not adapted for hunting.

HagBack Schoffs in the Eastern Fields have developed the ability to safely exhale the gasses of a Tapot-Yil, allowing them to eat far more of them, as well as providing a passive defense against most other creatures.

Tapot-Yils in the Eastern Fields have responded to this increase in how many are eaten by forming a symbiotic relationship with the HagBack Schoffs, growing inside of them until they emerge from their backs, providing or taking back extra nutrients as needed.

Of course, adding more mass makes them more resistant to cold. Albinism becomes common in the descendants of that Grundleshoff, making them camouflage perfectly in the cold ice of the far north.

Due to the expanse of habitat the worm bug split into two different species to deal with the vast difference of biome.

Stachbug are found mostly either a 1-4 meters down or near Tapot-yil roots,

The western whip has lost its flowers due to their vulnerability to the cold, and has created a thicker skin that shields from the cold, but does not let nutrients through. It now obtains what it needs from spongy "berries" that are very nutritious

Alternate Bowl tree evo: The bowl tree has evolved fuzz on its leaves to insulate them, which periodically falls off. The bowl tree has also formed a natural antifreeze in its sap, yet this sap is also alkaline and neutralizes the sap acidity, and also make the sap flow out in large spiderweb-like streams.Even though the now grey bark is harder then before, It can still be easily punctured, causing the sap to flow out. Perhaps an animal could find a way to take advantage of this...

Longer legs allow for the Grundleshoff to run farther lengths and tower over prey for intimidation. Hints of paws start forming, leading to their potential formation over time.

Some of the Whip adapt to grow inland. They grow in fallen leaves under Beyblue Palms where the ground is more damp. When winter comes the top part of the fungus withers and it goes dormant, sprouting again when it becomes warm.

>>2679349
thats eight kinds of too much for one evo. the impossibility, the flint and the necessary fire resistence all make this evo impossibly large and stupid

>>2679417
in terms of stupid, that one is pretty tame for this evo

>>2679418
>>2679417
>>2679349
While the ability to naturally produce fire is not impossible(look at the bombardier beetle for example), and the creature already has hydrogen, which is flammable, contained inside it in large quantities, the creature doesn't have the prerequisites for using it the way you described(not intelligent enough to use flint and rubble as tools, no grabbing appendages to manipulate the flint and rubble). Therefore, I declare that this evolution is not canon.

(posting this for another person, he wanted to make an update to the species but couldn't due to not having access to his computer)

In order to protect from the cold, the Drunkpurps have developed hair on their bodies and began spending more time in the deeper, warmer parts of the Leaf Mats.

File: Boreal Farcesaur.png (24 KB, 756x737)

24 KB PNG

Farcesaurs that live in Eastern Fields develop short fur. Their legs become longer, while slow they now can cover more ground, pursuing prey for long distances.

When it's especially cold they find a clump of Tapot-Yil plants and burrow into the warm ground to wait for warmer weather.

>>2679426
As the gyu who made the original evo line for the pygmys, I agree that this line is getting kind of dumb.

File: Purg.png (27 KB, 900x800)

27 KB PNG

>>2664852
The Purg sees that its current diet simply cannot sustain it in the temperatures of Florainsulam. It has to adapt, and so in times of excessive cold it incorporates meat into its diet.

Due to a slowly cancerous mutation, a secondary stomach develops into which a misdirected vomit-reflex pumps any non-plant matter. This 'burner' stomach works overtime whenever it is fed and transforms nutrients into excess energy asap before it can even be distributed throughout the body. This way the stomach, which cancerously envelops the Purg's organs more and more over its life, heats the animal from the inside whenever it consumes flesh.

This beneficial cancer would prove problematic for most animals, but since the Purg bursts for reproduction anyways it rarely dies of the other organs being displaced.

Meanwhile its larvae still have to find shelter in the leaf mats and underground. For this reason, smarter larvae capable of finding the warmest spots have an evolutionary advantage.

Very well. The Floating Pygmies evolve to use the advantage of numbers, moving about in herds of 12 to 20. They huddle together for warmth, and work together in taking down larger prey.

The Wide Totayl becomes thicker around, and kills the outer layer. This outer layer both protects the living part of the tree from the elements, but as it slowly decomposes, it actually warms the tree. By the time the outer layer is nearly gone, the tree has expanded enough for it to kill the outer layer again, repeating the cycle.

BeyBlu Palms in the Eastern Fields grow thicker and shorter in order to avoid heat loss. Their roots become larger and their trunk bulbs fatter, making them slightly resemble the Farcesaur.
