As Ventricapillus jurvus thrived in zone C1 and intraspecific competition became an issue causing populations to diversify enzymes used for decomposition. One population that began to specialize in breaking down dead polyph material would speciate.

5μm long
Originated in zone C1

Ventricapillus rescindofolium retains a cell membrane, cell wall, and cell capsule to protect from changes in the environment. Its genetic material is in a single strand throughout the cytoplasm. The short flagella are retained due to the high amount of available detritus. V. rescindofolium now utilizes Amylase enzymes which efficiently break down the starches of dead polyphs such as Taxonophytes present. Once the organic matter is broken down, the polyph sugars released due to the acids are absorbed by ribosomes and are used for energy.

It reproduces by duplicating genetic material and splitting at a consistent rate of once every 40 minutes.
