Pygmegnathusensis pygmeus
Evolved from M. clavotigris that moved to zone 5 and evolved to be smaller and have larger fins to swim faster. It also developed a primitive lung, from a mutation from the swim bladder, to breathe air so it can crawl on land to spawn.
Found in zone 5 they get 1.2 feet long. They feed on J. jelouwuzzus, S. bydensis, S. spinyensis, A. fabricus, A. greenensis and A. osone. They use their teeth to pick off pieces of J. jelouwuzzus, A. fabricus, A. greenensis or A. osone while it bites and swallows S. bydensis and S. spinyensis. They live solitarily swimming in the open waters foraging and hunting. They have primitive lungs to breathe air so they can spawn on the shores of beaches and to flee from territorial fights. However they can only last ~2 hours on land until they dries out so it must soak itself. It prefers to live in the sea then on the beaches since there is no food on the beaches. When breeding groups of 30s-50s will go to the shores and start climbing out using their large lobed fins and start spawning. Each female will lay up to 40-100 eggs (only 3-5 survive) in the substrate. The eggs are left at the shore in the sandy beaches submerged. The eggs can also resist going on dry land but incubate slower. Once the eggs hatch they babies dig themselves out of the sand in the 1000s and crawl to the sea. The babies are independent and can survive in groups but once they are subadult they become solitary.
