The tetrawing phlyer split from its ancestor, they hunt in the underbrush for small fauna. Due to a mutation they have four wings, both are weaker than the wings of the worm phlyer, but both are movable. The beaks of these fauna have single serrated edges on the top and bottom pieces that close together to form a deadly slice, the two pieces are separate so the tetrawings can sort of chew by moving their beaks back and forth across their prey in a sawing motion, their beaks also have a bark-like covering that defends better against possible damage from struggling prey. Their long tongues are softer and very flexible compared to their ancestors because the cells in this muscle have all but lost their cellwalls, the tetrawing phlyer uses it to pick up dead prey and tuck it into their mouths. This phlyers legs are longer and stronger because much of their hunting is done on the ground, although to hunt the various flying worms they will take to the air. To defend against predators that might attempt a surprise attack they have large eye spots on their front legs that are to be waved about during such events.
Tetrawing phlyers have large social groups that have very large, often overlapping, territories. These groups are very loose, often only joining during migrations to other areas or when it is time to roost. Like their ancestors, these phlyers will make nests out of flora that they collect, but they will also include other things such as bones and mud.
