The salt grass split from its ancestor. The salt grass has adapted to life close to the salty desert portion of BioCat River and has learned to thrive in this harsh environment. Their life cycle is short and they can reproduce fast which is why they can survive as a species so close to the river. The salt grass will only grow and produce spores in the short rainy period when the salt level is at its lowest. The spores are dropped into the water from underneath the four large leafs hanging down when the rain is pouring down on them. The salt grass does not resemble its ancestor too much but a "tuft" of grass in the center of the plant give it away. This grass tuft serves pretty much the same purpose now as it did with its ancestor.
