Ancestor:Descendants:

The no-snarf split from its ancestor, though replacing it in the organisms it preys on. It now lives exclusively on plents closely descended from the norat, spreading throughout Drake. It lives in much the same way as its ancestor, living inside plents and consuming cells. It has a evolved a unique reproductive method, forming cysts on the skin of their hosts. These will burst when pressured, or automatically after a specific time. Unfortunately, a highly aggressive species swept through Drake, weakening the population of plents descended from the norat to a point where they became extinct, causing the extinction of the no-snarf as well. The following species went extinct; the nogbarrel, the downfeathered noleap, the notox, and the polapin.
