The brinebane split from its ancestor and inhabits the Western beaches of Dixon. It has changed very little from its ancestor, except it now reuses the old genetic material for storing chitinase in a new way. Instead of storing the chitin-dissolving fluid it now holds a special bitter liquid derived from the salty water of the beaches (thus the brine in its name). It processes the liquid in the outer layer of its bulb and then sends it up to the leaf stems, which turn a whitish-yellow when filled. The stems are rather sensitive, if they are handled too roughly they will burst and the briny fluid will ooze out, which smells unpleasant and produces a stinging sensation if exposed to skin. If the flora has too much brine in it, it can secrete it out of little pores located on the part of the bulb which connects with the leaves.
