The '''armored cloudswarmer''' replaced its ancestor, the [[Slarti Cloudswarmer|slarti cloudswarmer]]. Its success comes from a variety of adaptations, the most noticeable of which is its primitive exoskeleton. Hardened cellulose, much like in its distant relatives the diveskimos, serves as both a support structure and an anchoring for various muscles. While its criss-crossing shape allows for vertical movement, it constricts horizontal movement. Its flight has evolved, as well, using its four wings to glide and to steer while its four tentacles move up and down, propelling it forward. Besides its new exoskeleton and flight style, the armored cloudswarmer has also re-evolved its distant ancestor's three eyes. This allows both stereoscopic vision, and the ability to see underneath it. Its mouth has elongated slightly, allowing it to better feed on the powdery "fruit" of the glassflora.
