When some Libraphotocyanus cytosol were "captured" by the sticky slimes of the first few initial Licheiromimus captotectumi colonies, they eventually diverged into a new species that was more tolerant at growing at deeper depths and as a consequence no longer depended on growing at the surface.

Libraphotocyanus fugitatus is a photosynthetic polyph cell that acts independently but when it splits the daughter cells also get stuck on the slime of the Licheiromimus captotectumi colonial surfaces. This gives the impression that these cells are colonial as they are near eachother, although they are not.

These cells grow at a slightly larger size of sixty micrometers (60 μm) in length but do this to store more potential energy for the daughter cells, which are around thirty micrometers (30 μm) after splitting. To tolerate lower levels of sunlight, up to a hundred meters (100 m) in depth, their metabolism is slowed and they split once every forty-five (45) minutes to produce two (2) new cells. During cellular respiration and when they die or expire, these cells may gradually break down and their byproducts act as additional fuel for Licheiromimus captotectumi to grow.
