The maehematitus split from its ancestor, the lithoamoeba and moved to Mae Sandstone Caves. It now consumes mainly the mineral Hematite, found in abundance in the sandstone caves, giving the organism an orange hue. It still uses psuedopods to gather quantities of inorganic material, and reproduces via mitosis.
To get to the hematite deposits, the maehematitus will squeeze itself through narrow ravines in the compact stone, and feed on the mineral slowly until the crevice is depleted.
Living Relatives (click to show/hide)
These are randomly selected, and organized from lowest to highest shared taxon. (This may correspond to similarity more than actual relation)
None found. Note that this does not necessarily mean it has no living relatives at all, but that, assuming all taxonomy is filled in, its entire class is extinct; any relatives it does have likely do not resemble it.
