Ancestor:Descendants:

The lithoranjavia split from its ancestor, the lithoamoeba, and moved from the Barlowe Water Table to the Ninja Sandstone Caverns. It evolved to draw Silica (SiO2) from the sandstone and by chemical methods extract the Silicate from it, releasing oxygen to the caverns' atmosphere in the process.
