Because the treeworms couldn't flap their wings, a strange mutation happened, the leaves split in two. Because the worms that had this mutation could gain more energy and live slightly longer, the mutation grew, until the treeworm's leafwings were completely split. Due to this, the split-leafworms replaced their ancestor.
Due to this new mutation, they can absorb a lot more energy, and became slightly faster, although not a lot. Also, their wing muscles became stronger. This allows them to alter the placement of their wings slightly to let them point to the sunlight and maintain them in that position.
They still use their tongue to suck out nutrients, but now, their tongue have tiny hairs, which work as saliva, decomposing the nutrient slightly so they can be used or stocked more rapidly.
