Ancestor:Descendants:

Polagea split from its ancestor and made its home on the Blitz Polar Coast sea-floor. They have formed massive carpets, obscuring most of the sea-floor from view. They photosynthesize with their duel "leaves", and stick to the ocean floor with their holdfasts. Through their holdfasts they have begun to absorb minute amounts of iron, and use it to fortify their internal structures. It has developed a form of biological antifreeze in order to allow it to grow this far north of the equator in these cold icy waters that are frequented by icebergs.
