Lyra

The lyra split off from the skittish centilopeworm. It has evolved many new adaptions. For instance its hoofs now are pronged to help it grip the ground better when walking. Its neck has grown longer and has more segments to help it better maneuver, plus a fuzzy "beard" grows on the bottom of it. Tiny hairs also grow on its back and feeling whiskers by its mouth. The stabilizing hairs around its feet have disappeared however. This is because the wider hoofs provide better stability and its longer "tail" now works as a counter balance. However it can still be used when breeding or defecating. The most important adaption is its new "lyre organ". This organ doubles has its ears like its ancestor used its "hearing pin", but also allows it to create sounds from it too. it has developed a 2nd "hearing pin" which now works like a pick. This plucks the hairs in the "lyre organ" and produces sound. Its uses these sounds to both attract mates and warn others of predators. The down side to this organ is that when it is producing sound it cannot hear. However when not plucking both the "lyre organ" and the "pick" can be used to pick up sound vibrations. Now with the ability to both hear and make sounds they have become more social. They will typically travel in small groups. However they will gather in mass during matting season where all 3 genders will meet. To breed, lyra find their mates first, a male, a female, and a chemale (hormone cell producer). Once a trio, the three find a soft spot in the soil and stick their ovipostitors into the ground, they then release a large amount of liquid along with the sex cells specific to their gender. This liquid allows the cells to move about with being in a pool of water.
