Ancestor:Descendants:

The dome crystal replaced its ancestor, the polar cellulosebane. Due to the success of the polar crystalplaque neutralizing the "cellulase" saturated spores that its ancestor produced, it no longer had a need to produce it anymore. As a result they still produce spores but without any "cellulase" in them anymore. This meant cellulose species like purple flora or plents were safe to be around them once again. However without producing "cellulase" anymore, polar crystalplaque went extinct. Like its ancestor it has an anti-freeze-like chemical in it to help it stop from freezing and can expel excess salt from the sand when absorbing water in beach biomes.
