Flisilensis marineris
Flisilensis marineris is a descendant of Sukataxidus marcops. F. marineris emerged due to intraspecific competition pushing some populations northward where they began relying on marine polpyhs for food. F. flisilensis has adapted to live in burrows near the ocean dug by males to avoid the heat and potential desiccation. The second legs of males have broadened to aid in digging and swimming while the first pair remains unchanged for handling food. The final body segment has also become somewhat fluke shaped to aid in swimming. The second pair of legs also act as displays to show fitness to females. The males will sit at the entrance of their burrow and flash the striking colors of their legs to attract a female to stay in the burrow. The males will leave the burrow in search of food either terrestrial or marine for the females and juveniles to eat. Mostly bringing back seeds from marine polyps near the shore.
The females legs are unchanged but they have increased in size, becoming much slower and bulkier, being mostly inactive living in burrows. The females will lay eggs at regular intervals depending on food availability it can be anywhere from one egg a week to two eggs a week. The juveniles will grow in the burrow until they are able to get their own food or lay eggs at which point they will leave to make new burrows and find mates. Mature males are 10 cm and mature females are 15 cm.
