D. arbora is a 4 legged descendant of the Draco antaritha within zone C. It has developed claws on all 4 legs to climb up and live on the Plortatus longatumus. Entire families could spend their lives on one tree from which the eat the leaves and seeds. These specimens gave grown to a whopping 4-5 in. which is easily supported by the great quantity and sizes of the seeds and leaves. The tree is an integral part of life for these lizards, housing nests are made from their fallen parts, the branches hold their nest homes, and nurseries for the infants are made in the water near the roots (where they can be vulnerable when not adequately protected). Small groups, however, will leave occasionally to inhabit another Plortatus longatumus. The D. arbora has developed the ability to close its nose to block out the smell from the seeds it eats. The tree does benefit from this relationship because the lizards help it to self-pollinate, they fiercely protect the tree from whatever may harm it, and migrating groups can bring the seeds elsewhere.
