The edificocco darkswarmer split from its ancestor, the jujubee darkswarmer and moved up to the sunlit zones of the jujubee ocean. Its green areas have regained their ability to photosynthesize, but it uses that ability only as a secondary means to extract energy.
It's water pressure sensory organs grew and spread sideways to its fins. This, in turn, enables the edificocco darkswarmer to sense better its surroundings for prey and predators. Its light sensitive eye on top of its head is only used to find good light absorption spots for it to photosynthesize in.
Its rear tentacles have changed to an oar shape. This helps it direct the water pressure, and therefore control the direction and speed of its movement much better than its ancestor could. Thanks to the many changes its body had undergone, the edificocco darkswarmer is twice as big as its ancestor was.
It is not rare to see a school of these organisms travel together to familiar feeding grounds. These schools will mostly consist of 10-15 individuals, and sometimes will follow one darkswarmer as a leader to the group's favorite spots. Reproduction and mating had not changed much from its ancestor, and still consist of copulating and spawning through the mouth.
