The scalong is a fairly harmless creature that just helps the circle of life in Sagan 4. It lives on the scales and skin of rough and big creatures (armored plents), mostly those who have armor or cracked skin so it can stay in the small tunnels inside. It can cause an allergic reaction in some species and terrible itchiness, but that rarely happens.

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.
