Ancestor:Descendants:

The irinya foi split from its ancestor. It has moved upstream, where it now eats the dead skin cells off of the whorls that lived there. It has evolved and interesting method of reproduction. Two sexes have evolved in the river, the male lives exclusively on the golden whorl, and the female on the violet whorl. During fall, the fee detach themselves from their respective whorls. The males produce genetic material through their stomach, which the females absorb. After this is done, the males stick to a new whorl as it passes by. The females, though, curl into a ball and use their gastric acids to dissolve the stomach, creating a hollow chamber. She incubates five-seven baby fee until the spring. Then, the baby fee eat away her skin and seek out new hosts. Roughly eighty percent of new fee are female, because the males do not incubate babies.
