Cavuops tartarus (NT), Male Juvenile
Tropical Very Humid Barrens (Night)
A North-East Tartarus River
NOT YET VOTED
You swim towards the scent of freshwater, through the very warm, murky water. It’s also dark because it is night and you can only just about see. You paddle your legs and fantail, boosting with your hyponome and pass the other animals without issue. Soon, you pass from murky, brackish water into clear freshwater and head down to the riverbed where you stop doing much movement. This rest recuperates a lot of your energy. You rest through the day and then it gets dark again so you become active once again. In front of you, grazing on algae, is an animal with a black, fish-shaped body. It has square teeth, upwards-facing eyes, pectoral fins and semi-circular caudal fins at the base of the tail [Organia encephalus]. Floating above you through the water are a few animals with a blue, tubular body with lines of cilia along it and a jelly-like bell at the front end. There are tentacles around the mouth which exist on the centre of the upper face of the bell [Masticephalus recentibus]. Further down river is an animal with a strong, pill bug-like exoskeleton shaded sandy above and white below that ends in a fan tail. It has a head with mandibles and two pairs of eyes (camera in front of compound) as well as a pair of clawed chelipeds followed by four pairs of legs with large paddles and then five swimmerets [Pultrypa jellyfishmonii].

Maurcolus proximus (LC), Juvenile
Deep Ocean (Day, 500-1500m deep)
Continental Slope to the North-East of Tartarus
The scent of an Ahyponomus minor [worm] reaches you through the cold, very dark water and you walk off towards it, getting further from the hydrothermal vent and the scent of a Myostila bathyus [sea anemone]. Soon, the scent becomes very strong and emanates from below you, so you dig down until your antennae come into contact with the soft-skinned worm. You feel the seabed below your feet and can sense another Ahyponomus in the distance towards a Pulchellia chartus [tube anemone]. Above you are some Masticephalus bathyus [tiny, ciliated filter-feeders] and an Allostoma ripleyii [tiny, sharp-beaked, egg-eating worm]. The scents of the hydrothermal vent are faint but reach you from behind. (6 + 1 = Ding, ding, ding! Congrats, you have won a bonus point! See the reward shop at the top of the round.)

A deep sea arthropod that feeds mainly on worms in the seabed of the deep ocean.

Diplopygus pugilus (LC), Hatchling Male
Tropical Ocean (Day)
Coastal Shallows to the North-East of Tartarus
In the very warm, clear blue water, you swim towards an animal, enshrined in seaweed, with a conical shell around the body up to the head, a beak, camera eyes on stalks and tentacles with suckers and threads. It is red [Stenoceras edouardi]. Whilst you are gliding on your folded up legs and boosting with your hyponome, you wind up your claws, ready to attack. You get to the animal and launch your claws which cause a scratch in the big animal. However, the predator lashes out with it’s tentacles and bats you away, sending you spinning through the water. The Stenoceras slowly moves away across the seabed, a couple of cuts on it’s side. You look around you now in a shallow lagoon, surrounded by walls of sand - green seaweed grows in the middle of the seabed. As well as the Stenoceras, on the fronds are animals with round shells above a gastropod foot, a pair of tentacles around the mouth and two eyes on stalks [Camerotheca acutastomus]. Shuffling below the seaweed are animals that have a woodlouse-like, green exoskeleton that ends in a fantail. It is armed with mandibles and a pair of clawed chelipeds plus is equipped with two pairs of eyes - stalked camera in front of compound - and four pairs of paddle-lined legs [Caulops viridus]. (3)

Diplopygus is a lobe-limbed arthropod with two fan tails, making it a proficient swimmer, as well as having a spring-loaded cheliped. It is a predator of both the open tropical seas and tropical estuary biomes. It is comparatively huge to any other animal alive at the time of its arrival. It has a larger mouth and better chemoreceptors than it’s predecessor, making it more successful.

External Features: It has a cylindrical body which has a calcified, calcite exoskeleton in fourteen plates with joint tissue in between. The skin underneath has sandy melanin pigmentation on top and white melanin pigmentation underneath. One pair of legs have chela on the end. In front of the round mouth is a mandible. Around the mouth are a few chemoreceptors. On either side of the head is a camera eye with calcite lens that changes shape and has no blind spot and a typical apposition compound eye, which both contain blue and green cone cells. Not including the chelipeds, it has four pairs of normal legs, one to a segment, that have a large paddle on the outer side. When swimming, these are folded in to give the effect of a continuous lobe halfway along the body. Behind that is five pairs of biramous, paddle-lined swimmerets, one to a segment. The rear of the body has two fan tail lobes and below that a hyponome. Males in the mating season have a series of blue stripes on their limbs, unique to the species.

Blood vessels travel past every cell, carrying blue blood caused by hemocyanin, and the double circuit has a three-chambered heart. An anti-freeze xylomannan fatty acid and polysaccharide is in the blood. The body is supported by a system of muscles. It has a sex-appropriate gonad and a large protonephridium.

Ganglia in the head lead into a dual dorsal nerve cord that has many nerves branching off. A cerebrum has memory neurons.

Haleglossus beveria (LC), Subadult Male
Tropical Very Humid Barrens (Day)
A North-East Tartarus River
You hatch out into very warm, clear water, out of the pouch of an adult Haleglossus and start to float along on the current. You float into a pool in the side of the river but the water here is absolutely boiling. It’s too hot for you and you have to make a quick escape. You scramble through the thick, hot water towards where the water is feeling cooler. The heat is starting to become too much until you reach tolerable water; the temperature now suits you and you are comfortable. This adventure exhausted you. You can see the river banks either side through the clear water over the pebbly riverbed on which are several animals with a bivalve shell with cirri protruding through the opening [Compcylindricus sous]. Swimming downriver is an animal with a fish-shaped body. It has square teeth, upwards-facing eyes, pectoral fins and semi-circular caudal fins at the base of the tail [Organia encephalus]. Ensconced under a rock is an animal with a woodlouse-like, mud-brown exoskeleton with a head carapace and ending in a fantail. It is armed with mandibles and a pair of clawed chelipeds plus is equipped with two pairs of eyes - camera in front of compound - and four pairs of paddle-lined legs [Cavuops tartarus] (2)

A predatory ambush hunter that lures prey in with a lure that resembles algae, Haleglossus name lives throughout the tropical ocean, Olympia, Delphi, Aeaea and Tartarus. In the opposite vein to it’s predecessor it produces more eggs than many other species on the planet; it can produce 10,000 eggs each spawning when they gather at mating sites in Early Spring. However, it seems to have lost the part of it’s brain that allows for spatial awareness. It lives alongside another Haleglossus species on Tartarus; it has more fatalities due to being smelt easier by predators but produces more young to counter this.

Organiavorius megapodis (U), Hatchling
Temperate Shallows (Early Spring - Day)
Coastal Shallows to the West of Tartarus
In the cool, quite murky water you crawl along the seafloor towards an animal with a black, fish-shaped body. It has square teeth, upwards-facing eyes, pectoral fins and semi-circular caudal fins at the base of the tail [Organia praecus]. However, before you get to move much an animal with a fish-shaped body comes zooming overhead. It has sharp teeth, forwards-facing eyes, pectoral fins and semi-circular caudal fins at the base of the tail [Uteenessichthys grandus]. This predatory fish makes it to the other fish quickly and snaps it up in it’s jaws leaving nothing behind for you but a cloud of blood. You are in an area in which you are on a sandbar, looking over the surrounding area. Above you are many cylindrical, transparent animals with cillia followed by a worm-like animal with a beak [Ctenella primus] [Ostrorhynchus strictus]. Amongst them is an animal with a fish-shaped body. It has sharp teeth, forwards-facing eyes, pectoral fins and semi-circular caudal fins at the base of the tail [Eolamnella simplex]. (3)
