The Thornstack replaced its ancestor in the southmost waterways of Darwin. The number of mounds it grows in a lifetime has more than doubled, which has doubled the organism's size. The mounds grow at irregular rates (resulting from enviromental factors), giving the stacks a slight lopsided look. The base "leaves" have a wider base to support each stack; the mounds are also denser near the bottom to aid in this. As it grows, the black photosynthesizing pigment wears out, turning older mounds a chalky grey; this helps the organism dispel heat easier. Other than these changes, it is the same as its ancestor.

The Thornstack replaced its ancestor in the southmost waterways of Darwin. The number of mounds it grows in a lifetime has more than doubled, which has doubled the organism's size. The mounds grow at irregular rates (resulting from enviromental factors), giving the stacks a slight lopsided look. The base "leaves" have a wider base to support each stack; the mounds are also denser near the bottom to aid in this. As it grows, the black photosynthesizing pigment wears out, turning older mounds a chalky grey; this helps the organism dispel heat easier. Other than these changes, it is the same as its ancestor.
