The '''balloonomae''' split from its ancestor, the [[Sugar-Trunked Balloonarch|sugar-trunked balloonarch]], and moved to [[Mae Sandstone Caves]]. With little to no light inside the caves, the balloonomae had to adapt to a new diet of filter feeding. Its source of nutrients ranges from the elusive [[Maehematitus|maehematitus]] to the more easily captured [[Maedetrovorus|maedetrovorus]], but its main food source is the [[Parasiticumae|parasiticuma]]. |

During the [[Lepsomae|lepsomae]] mating season, when the parasiticumae are abundant in the caves' air, the balloonomae has a feast. That, in turn, allows it to create more sugars for its spores, thus making more food for the lepsumae, and in turn more food for the parasiticumae. |

With less wind inside the caves, the balloonomae can not relay on its ancestor's hydrogen filled seed bubbles method of transferring genes. This, in turn, made the bubbles holding them almost redundant, and they mainly appear empty on its middle segments. |

The two hydrogen balloons on the middlemost segments became smaller and are now filled more with oxygen (taken mostly from the maehematitus) than hydrogen, since that is rarely available in these caves. |
