The parasite phlyer replaced its ancestor, the sky phlyer. With so many other creatures competing for the tropoworm it specialized in drinking the blood of bellyoon. They have developed sticky sap glands on their feet to help them stick to the skin of the bellyoons and then will use their sharp wooden beaks to pierce the skin. Once blood is drawn, it will lap up the blood.
They spend all their lives on or flying around bellyoons. They have around 2 babies at a time and they will huddle next to their parents on the skin of the bellyoons. If they cannot stick on they will fall to their deaths. Thus only the offspring with the stickiest sap feet survive. In addition to blood they can absorb sunlight via photosynthesis. If their host dies they will fly off and land on another bellyoon. They no longer have bright colors and blend in with the coloring of bellyoons in order to hide from predators.
