The riverweed tuff has split from its ancestor and moved into the Bone River. Similar to its ancestors in many ways, its key difference is the presence of micro-filaments coating its leaves, giving it a somewhat fuzzy appearance. These filaments increase the surface area of the flora, allowing it to absorb more nutrients than its ancestors ever could. Because of this, they now form thick carpets along the riverbed, creating shelter and food sources for numerous species of organisms from burraroms to scuttlers to even much larger species.
