Maehematitus

The maehematitus split from its ancestor, the lithoamoeba and moved to Mae Sandstone Caves. It now consumes mainly the mineral Hematite, found in abundance in the sandstone caves, giving the organism an orange hue. It still uses psuedopods to gather quantities of inorganic material, and reproduces via binary fission.

To get to the hematite deposits, the maehematitus will squeeze itself through narrow ravines in the compact stone, and feed on the mineral slowly until the crevice is depleted.
