Ancestor:Descendants:

The grasping kleptarthir split from its ancestor kleptarthir. It moved north to Ittiz Coast and replaced the armored trapinfilter. It has developed 3 proto-fingers to grasp onto rocks. It will use its 4 limbs to climb around on the rocky bottom in order to find prime locations to filter-feed. Its joints are much more fixable than its ancestor's. Like their ancestors, they will catch food in their brushy tentacles and then pull them into their mouth. They can steal food from others placing their armored tentacles into the mouth of the nearest grasping kleptarthirs. During the summer they will spawn huge clouds of spores maximizing the chances of their offspring survive. They have developed an rusty colored camouflage to blend in with the red-rusty sand of Ittiz Coast.
