Ancestor:Descendants:

Replacing its ancestor, the plump gillfin has spread and adapted to new habitats. Its lower jaw is still shovel-like and aids in getting food. In order to break open the harder fruits and seeds of plants like the shieldberry, the upper jaw has become scissor-like and overlays parts of it's lower jaw. The plump gillfin will migrate to territorial waters in Ovi Salt Lake to mate and raise their young until they can break free from the nutrient membrane on the adults tail. Young are then left to fend for themselves before traveling upstream as adults themselves.
