Anemosagania are a branch of cryosagania that became airborne.
A key trait of cryosagania being able to live at extremely cold environments, such as caves, the polar latitudes, or like in the case of Anemosagania, the cold of the atmosphere. Anemosagania have a thicker cell membrane, keeping in a bubble of hydrogen gas. This bubble of hydrogen gas helps to keep the Anemosagania aloft in times of extreme dryness or poor nutrition when Anemosagania will go dormant.

Individuals floating around will sometimes meet with other Anemosagania, and form groups. In this grouping process, the nucleus of the individuals become shared. This is a process called Heterokaryosis. These individuals can be genetically distinct from one another. During binary fission, the genetic material will mix and randomly redistribute.

Other than that, Anemosagania are like their ancestors.

Is this a hybrid? How did the ancestors hybridize?

Isn't cryosagania extinct?

Yes, all those ancestors listed are extinct in Generation 166. Unless you can get a retro-submission slot preceding Generation 148, where the longer-lasting ones were outcompeted by Kyanoses, your best option is to make these descended from the Kyanoses genus group. Kyanoses are descended (by a few steps) from Cryosagania. I suggest the latter, because the slots preceding Generation 148 may be all taken by now. That's just about the ancestors: I'll have to come back later for a more thorough look at other things.

There is a Cryosagania genus group retro-submission being made, that I am aware of.

You cannot submit a descendant of something not approved.

Can you temporarily graveyard this for the time being
