Ancestor:Descendants:

The hook microplaque replaced its ancestor microplaque in the ukfauna of Glicker. Like its ancestor its eats the food particles in the mouth of its host. However it also eats the calcium of the hollow tooth. It will use its hooked flagellum to connect with other hook microplague and cover the entire surace of the hollow tooth. Over time this can erode and even crack the hollow tooth.
