The belumbias, beginning as a small group of hematophagous parasites, have followed their prey over the millennia, multiplying and diversifying until they have spread across the globe, with species numbering in the hundreds. They have a wide range in body types, but they all fall within the same niche. They feed on the blood and skin of the hosts, using their sharp proboscises to pierce the bodies . Some species of host having multiple species of belumbia specialized to living on different parts of their bodies, such as species that live in the gills while others live on the skin. They have replaced both ancestors, but the urmelia was not effected.
