The Green Swarmer developed by a natural phenomenon called neoteny. This means, that the organism reaches sexual maturity without becoming an adult. This happened to some specimen of the Strainbean. This was very successful, and soon they spread over the LadyM Ocean, except for the part between Glicker and Wright. The reasons for this success was on the one hand the high production rate, because now they don't even have to reach sexual maturity and on the other hand the lack of predators - at first, because soon after the Green Swarmers established in the Ocean, many creatures discovered this hole new food source, such as the strainbeans and miscellaneous beakworms and even animals, which normaly eat bigger animals, such as the Snarks. The Green Swarmers look really much like the same as the very primitive filter feeders in the beginning of the plents' evolution, except for the facts, that they have only one eye and their body is rotated by 90 degrees, since during the growth of young Strainbeans, the larvae will tilt to the side. In fact they are really much the same as Strainbean larvae, only that the Green Swarmers can reproduce, without becoming adult.
