The zitshroom split from its ancestor. Since there was plenty of vegetation, some of the supershrooms began to feed off of them. Over time, they have adapted by becoming significantly smaller and growing from within the plant. If the zitshroom spread into large amounts, the plant will immediately die. It only lives for about 1 month, this means that it constantly produces sticky spores, which is why it is seen in clusters.
The zitshroom spreads out by either an infected plant with neighboring plants touching the spores, or from the dirigible tree carrying them. This works when a dirigible tree attaches to an infected plant, next some spores will stick on to the tree and spread, the clusters of zitshrooms will eventually put some extra weight on to the tree and it will have to lower down to another plant or kill it, and the cycle continues. Without the zitshroom, the plant populations would overgrow and be full of old plants.
