Ancestor:Descendants:

The dracisketter replaced its ancestor. Though its habits have essentially remained unchanged, it has several new features that help its gliding lifestyle. Its gliding wings have a series of filaments connecting them, which increases the surface area for gliding. The wings can now also fold along the individual's back when not in use, making the creature more agile while climbing and walking; to glide, they must extend their wings up along their back and then out to the sides. Their long butt nostril has a diamond-shaped gripping "finger" on the end to help with climbing. Individuals can now use their tail like a fifth arm to grab onto branches, even hanging upside down to get a better view of their surroundings.
