Ancestor:Descendants:

The quadrivorus has specialized in the Nuke Beach. It mostly uses chemosynthesis to synthesize the sulfur into usable energy. It will also furiously feeds on any micro-organism it encounters, using its three proboscis to pierce through most cell walls and membranes.

Its appearance has also changed. Another failure in dividing caused two hexspourus to cling in an odd way and eventually this specialized into one 'control cell' and 3 outer feeding and transport cells. This division has also allowed the quadrivorus to gain more mobility thanks to the two additional tentacles. It lives strictly on the ground.

Although the quadrivorus is a small cell compared to the testudiatom, it is able to break it slowly down by sucking the plate cells dry and reproducing while absorbing the nutrients, allowing them to slowly engulf the testudiatom and feed an entire colony.
