Ancestor:Descendants:

The chunky centiworm split from its ancestor, the rainforest centiworm. It made its way to the southern grasslands and scrublands of Wright. It is slightly larger than its ancestor but lives just like them. It digs through the soil using its 4 jaws and belly "scoots". It is much fatter than its ancestor because it must save up fat during the more difficult times of the year. It eats the waste of other creatures as well as the decomposing flora matter.

It has developed breathing holes on each segment which each have a micro-lung. Unlike its ancestor it no longer depends upon moist soil for breathing but must wait for the rainy season to lay its spore-like eggs into mud puddles. They do this once a year where each of the 3 sexes expels its part of the reproduction process. They require 1 egg-like spore, 1 sperm and 1 hormone cell. Without the hormone cell from the 3rd sex bonding to the egg-like spore, it will not allow the sperm to enter the egg-like.
