Ancestor:Descendants:

The branching cellulosebane split from its ancestor, the rainforest cellulosebane. It spread not only through the polar and temperate rainforests but also spread to the southern rivers and marshes of Drake. Due to the presence of cystalplaque in Slarti River and Slarti Marsh it first could not use its deadly cellulosese however over time it has became immune to it. Its relatives the cellulosebane crystal is still vulnerable and thus cystalplaque still feeds on it. It now grows branching crystals off its trunk and is twice its ancestors size.

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; quilbil, sunstalk, Ambush Nailfin, fan rootstalk, syntheleaf, wetland pipent, giant chamber stalk, slikent, sporeworm, shroomworm, worm phlyer, bottomleaf, fruity bluegrove, umbrellapuff, leaflower, Dwarf Snorkelcrest and grailshroom.
