Ancestor:Descendants:

The mohawkworm split from its ancestor and doubled in size. It now has bristles going across most of its back and the underside of its head, these bristles are highly sensitive to touch so that the worm can feel its surroundings better than its ancestor. The head of the mohawkworm has larger jaw muscles so that it can crush its food with ease. The hearing pin has developed further, it now has a flat plate-like area to be more sensitive to air movement, and the pin itself has enlarged. Mohawkworms have an excellent sense of smell, this sense is still strongest in the front nostrils.They live in small loose herds, and can often be found near water. Breeding is the same as its ancestors.
