|---|---|
The balurine split from its ancestor. They have adapted their sails into a balloon-like organ. These balloon sails have been adapted not only to increase it's area, allowing it to catch more sunlight, but it also catches escaping hydrogen. It grew larger, allowing it to optimize as much of the hydrogen as it can. It also produces a sticky sap, made of dextrose, on the balloon sacs that it uses to catch microbes and dissolve them to use as nutrients. It has been unable to successfully replace it's ancestor because it does not live as long, for they usually end up popping after a year or two.
