The few remaining populations of [[Twelve-Winged Worm|twelve-winged worms]] that were left were under increasing pressure from the many new species of worm that had evolved around them. Whereas the twelve-winged worm was a generalist, many specialist worms had evolved from it that where better adapted to feed on a specific part of the
The clear-wing worm (once evolved) was able to spread wherever
For their new lifestyle, the worm no longer needs twelve complex wings. As most of their day is spent hovering in front of their food their wings have combined to form just six wings, each with the same use as the old ones. The front wings are used for active movement, the middle two are used for gliding and the final two are used for direction.
