Ancestor:Descendants:

The leafcutter scuttlecrab replaced its ancestor, the leatherback scuttlecrab on Ovi Beach. It has become a herbivore and eats rustballs and the leafy plurgile. Its claws are now used for climbing up the sides of leafy plurgiles and its mandibles have grown much larger into saw shapes to cut the leaves. It will take off more than it can eat and store them in little sandy burrows. Sadly it has a limited memory and will forget where it hid the leaves most of the time.
