The hitchhiker nitroid replaced its ancestor, the hitchhiker nitroid, in all masonian biomes, though they still thrive on Sagan 4. Their cellular protrusions that form a cube-shape structure have grown, allowing it to absorb even more nitrogen from the air than its ancestor. It now obtains all of its carbon from CO2 in the atmosphere, to free up surface area for nitrogen absorbtion. Other than that, it resembles its ancestor, budding off from the central structure. It has been so successful, it has replaced the salidistroid in shared biomes.
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 phylum is extinct; any relatives it does have likely do not resemble it.
