Mavrophyte

The mavrophyte is an off-shoot of the bank balgae. It became more advanced, and developed a slightly thicker skin. On one end, double lobed leaves grow, while on the other, the drinking root that is left in the water. The mavrophyte became hollow, developing a primitive vascular system. To reproduce, the filamentous hairs on the drinking roots release cylindrical spores. Once the spores find a suitable place to grow, it will slowly grow out of the water. As stated before, the drinking root stays in the water.
