The beach cellulosebane split from its ancestor the cellulosebane crystal and migrated to the tropical and temperate beaches of Drake. Its roots can expel excess salt from the sand when absorbing water. At the beach it dominated and took over just like its ancestor did to Slarti River and Slarti Marsh. Like its ancestor it has a chemical that not only restrict the growth of non-crystal flora but dissolves cellulose! Unlike purple flora and black flora, which are made of cellulose, crystal flora is made of photosynthetic chitin on the outside and a red fungus-like cells on the inside thus making them immune to this chemical. In addition, its airborne spores are covered in this chemical. Thus they are fatal to plents who breathe them in, since their bodies are made of cellulose like flora. Each of their crystal branches can open up and release their spores. The effect of this chemical has caused the following species to become extinct in its range; dressed sporestalk, windsensor norat, scavengundi, powder petitworm, sporeworm, worm phlyer, lowtide crastrum, scurry currybug, parasite ballstalk, crastcumber, hookmouth phlyer, solar sately, beach blanket, testukona, scraping currybug, green snarf, spiky plentplaque, purple sickness, salt puff, tower saltpuff, boroto and coastpuff.
