Ancestor:Descendants:

The interlocking crystal koral split off from the ancestral crystal koral to live in the Huggs Coast. It looks the same as it's ancestor, but it is different, because their branches interlock with each other now, forming "colonies" that stretch out many miles across the coast. Their shape is assumed from stickyballs during low tide.

The interlocking crystal koral is able to create new individuals from their roots, much like a strawberry.
