I'll have to go over this later, but for now, some cursory feedback.

"mangles" You meant "mangals", as in mangrove swamps.

Do Squaphaneers travel fast enough, or have slow enough digestive transit times, to plausibly spread qupe trees and fuzzweeds?


that third one is pretty different.

I would consider possibly making that trait common to all members, but typically only occurring in situations of dense populations or close proximity, with it becoming highly apparent in those species that specialize more for those situations.

Opinion: Approved;

@kopout:

Some minor feedback:
“As these islands”: I recommend splitting the sentence with a comma: it’s long.
“were out,” Wear out.
“Common.Species” A minor spacing error.
“Wind blown” -> wind-blown.
Thermoregulation: Flora are surely ectotherms by default.
Support: I don’t know for certain for this lineage, but cell walls and cellulose are likely.


Otherwise, this looks suited for approval. Strictly speaking, these things are so minor they could easily be corrected after approval on the wiki, due to the typo correction rule.

I corrected these. It's now fit for approval.
