The twinkgreeus is a specialized species of twinkiiro. It has become a parasite, growing on black flora, particularly the above-ground roots of the crestagreeus (hence the name). While it still photosynthesizes, it obtains about half of its nutrients by siphoning sap from its host. If there is no blackflora nearby it will spread on the ground; if black flora are growing under it will quickly latch on with its drill-like root. Since it is still part of the Twinkiiros genus, it is eaten by the megascooter.
