Caprystal

The caprystal replaced its ancestor the capped brystal in Always Salt Swamp, Darwin Tropical Rainforest and Darwin Tropical Woodland and spread to other tropical biomes in Darwin. This included the tropical rainforest, beaches, swamps and even tropical riparian. It has doubled in size and now has many more segments on both its trunk and cap. This helps it keep structural integrity. Their honeycomb chitin outsides are both strong and lightweight, especially the cap. This help keep it from tipping over. Like its ancestor its spores grow on the underside of the top cap. They spread via the wind, thus mature adults will release their spores at the windiest times of the year. While they share they same habitat as the tropical crystamboo, they live longer but grow more slowly. In addition they are around half the size of the tropical crystamboo too.
