The tethyssie split from its ancestor, the nonessie. When some nonessies crossed into the tropical oceans, they ended up in areas with more space, less competition, and good sources of food that allowed them to become larger than their ancestors.
Much like its ancestor, the tethyssie still feeds on smaller sea-dwelling organisms that can fit in its mouth and it still hunts during dawn and dusk. But as it started to feed on more clever, more aggressive, and especially vision-reliant prey, it had to adapt a few extra features to deal with such matters. The first of these are that its teeth curve slightly backwards towards the gullet, preventing prey from escaping its maw; the second adaptation is tougher skin that can handle attacks from defending jlindohves; the third adaptation is that the top half of its body has splotches of color that resemble pioneer raftballs, allowing it to further blend into its environment.
Aside from these changes, it remains the same as its ancestor.
Despite spreading out into the tropical oceans of Sagan 4, the tethyssie has not entered in the King Tropical Coast and the Chum Tropical Coast due to too much competition with the slaesosaurs in the area.
