Im still not very sure what I want the summoning to look like…

Automatic Weedwackers - The Nomwats

10 Million Years P.E. [The Middle Origocene]

10 million years Into the history of Macroterra, the first giants have evolved.

While Not quite megafauna, they are the largest animals Macroterra has yet to produce.

Those giant grazers are known as the Nomwats (Family: Vombatmacrotidae).

The secret of their size Is the lack of large scale herbivores on the planet, with the niche empty, the descendants of the Shorts-Tail quickly expanded In size.

As of right know there are about 5 different species of them, with the following 3 being the most widespread.

The Plains Nomwat (Campimacrotis Magnus) Is the second largest Nomwat living In this time and feeds on soft grasses and other vegetation.

The Koala-Nose Nomwat (Phascolarctosnasusmacrotis Griseus) posses an shorter, broader snout, more adapted for grazing on though vegetation.

As herbivores became more frequent, many plants have adapted thougher stems In order to be less appetizing to the grazers.

Among the evolutionary armsrace, the fauna although has also been evolving, trying to get away from competetion and the Koala-Nose Nomwat managed to adapt Its diet to range from soft to though vegatation.

The Tundra Nomwat (Frigidusmacrotis Fuscus) Is the largest of the Nomwats and thus the largest Bilby to live In this time.

Their large size Is an great adaption for the chilly climate they live in.

How do people already have spring break?!

Pop Goes The Measel - The Measels

10 Million years P.E. [The Middle Origocene]

The Tearlings and the Bepples were the first carnivores on Macroterra to emerge 9 million years ago.

But while Tearlings specialised In other Bilbies, the Bepples were insect eaters, untill some of their recent descendants, the Measels (Family: Mustelamacrotidae).

Measels are carnivores like their ancestors but have started to add other Bilbies into their insectivorous diet, some still eat mostly insects, but some have completly moved on to a diet consisting of small marsupials.

The Steak-Colored Measel (Pseudomustela Carnecolorate) Is one of the more basal species.

They are meso- ambush predators which eat both insects and small Bilbies.

The Steak-Colored Measel also shows an trait not often found In marsupials, parental care.

In most marsupials the mother wont interact much with their baby and will kick It out of the pouch once too heavy.

Most Measels will still carry around their joeys on their back after they have outgrown their pouch, showing them how to hunt and find insects, the mother will also protect the joeys from other meso-predators that might try to eat them.

The Steak-Colored Measel reproduces rather slow, once every few weeks they will mate and raise up to 2 joeys at a time.

The Shell-Fisher (Aquamacrotis Conchyliapiscatio) Is another rather odd marsupial, as their are semi-aquatic.

Semi-aquatic marsupials are difficult, as mothers would drown their joeys when diving Into water.

On earth we only ave one semi-aquatic marsupial the Yapok.

As a result the Shell-Fisher has heavily converged with the Yapok, evolving the same mechanism allowing them to seal their pouch watertight, they achieve this with an muscular mechanism that cinches the pouch closed.

With this mechanism the Shell-Fisher mother can dive Into rivers without drowning their joeys.

The Shell-Fishers themself will like the Steak-Colored Measel raise an max of 2 joeys, less joeys require less air, thus the mother can dive longer then if she would raise more.

They although dont interact much with their joeys after leaving the pouch, unlike many other Measels.

Underwater the Shell-Fishers will seek out hard shelled prey like mussels.

The Pale-Faced Tree Measel (Mustelaarboris Pallidafacies) Is an arboreal entry of the Measel family, they are one of the few Tree Measels that only feed on other Bilbies and dont show parental care.

They are excellent climbers and feed on other arboreal critters like Squruffies or Bilcoons.

Soul Stop Doodles I Made In School

Treasure The Rodent - Mausbies Of The Late Origocene

(20 Million Years P.E.)

The Middle Origocene saw the rise of the Mausbies, small rodent analogues, In the niche of seedeaters or small scale omnivores.

But now In the Late Origocene the Mausbies saw alot more diversity trying to cover still avaible niches or make a living In new Habitats.

The Beavalis are descendants of the Rattuffs which have adapted to an semi-aquatic lifestyle.

Similiar to the Shell-Fishers 10 Million years prior they have adapted an mechanism that allows them to seal their pouch when underwater, preventing their joeys from drowning.

The Greater Beavali (Flumenmus Nonaustralianus) Is one of the more basal species.

Their strong incisors are perfectly adapted for crushing the hard shells of mussels and crustaceans, but also for breaking wooden bark. Similiar to earthern Beavers, the Greater Beavali builds dams which can controll the river streams, giving them the perfect conditions to build their nests, find and store food as well as giving them an safe place to rest.

The Grey Bilbypus (Macrotisornithorhynchus Griseus) Is an fellow widespread Beavali species, It posses long sensitive whiskers which It uses to find arthropods and other goods hidden under the river bed.

Another clade of Rattuff are the Hampters, as their name suggest they have heavily converged with earthern hamsters.

They posses an small, round body with an short tail, but those are not all features they took from the earthern hamster, as they also have the hamsters signature trait, cheek pouches.

Their flexible cheeks help them to hord all of the goods they find, saving time foraging, which makes them visible to predators.

The Field Hampter (Pseudocricetus Ager) Is an plains dwelling small-scale herbivore feeding on seeds, roots, vegetables and various grasses. Field Hampters are one of the few unsocial Mausby species, not forming family colonies and only interacting with another when mating.

The Greater Dwarf Hampter (Nainuspseudocricetus Maxillutus) Is pretty similiar to Its larger cousin, although they are not herbivores but rather omnivores, eating seeds, roots and insects.

They also havent completly abondend their colonies, althought the family bonds are very loose and tend to fall apart quickly.

Talking about unsocial Mausbies, we have the Terrisquis, an clade of Squruffies, solitary Mausbies that by now have become incredibly territorial and even straight up aggressive animals.

Similiar to the Hampters the Terrisqui have found an way to take their food to go, but instead of developing cheek pouches, they used an feature they already possed and have just modified It a bit, as the Terrisquis use their marsupial-pouches to store their food.

This alsomeans that both the males and the females posses pouches to store food, we see something similiar In earthern Yapoks, marsupials In which both males and females posses pouches.

Also similiar to the Yapok they posses an mechanism that allows them to seal their pouch, the same Shell-Fishers and the Beavalis posses, this prevents their food from accidentally falling out of their pouch.

The Colorbark Terrisqui (Colossciurus Fuscusanrufus) Is an pretty basal member of the Terrisqui family.

The females sport an camouflaging brown color, while the males are alot more eye-stinging. As territorial as the Terrisquis are, the males have evolved an brighter fur color to make their presence clear to rivals. The males also posses the ability to make the fur on their back stand up, In turn making them appear larger to predators and rivals.

Back to the more peacefull and social creatures, we have the Wabillies. Plains dwelling descendants of the Jerbaroos.

Normally the desert Is the kingdom of the Jerbaroos, with the plains dwelling individualls standing In the shadow of their relatives, but the Wabillies managed to stay relevant amongst the competetion.

As of right now the Wabillies are the largest Mausbies to ever exist, turns out, living In the plains among swarms of Pterobats of prey, being big has Its benefits.

The Plains Wabilly (Subterranotamacropus Fodiens) Is the most common species of the rather small Wabilly family.

They live In huge family colonies and burrow equally huge, complex burrows. They are omnivores eating whatever they can find, vegetables, seeds, insects and even the occasional small marsupial.

Big Forest, Smaller Grazers - Bilbeelopes and Scoppels

10 Million Years P.E. [The Middle Origocene]

In an temperate forest of Macroterra we find an quite peacefull scenary, as 2 herbivorous Bilbies enjoy an meal In peace without any of their natural predators around.

The larger Bilby feeding on an bush Is an Bilbeelope (Family: Bovidaemacrotidae) specifically an Forest Bilbeelope (Silvamacrotis Evasivus). The Bilbeelopes are just like the Nomwats descendants of the Shorts-Tail, Unlike their stockier-build cousins, they prefer to eat from shrubs and small trees. Their interest In those food sources helps them to avoid competetion with the Nomwats.

The other small critters In the picture might look like the earthern bunnies, but like all the vertebrates they are descendants of Bilbies and thus marsupials, no bunnies. The Scoppels (Family: Pseudocuniculusidae) are the smallest Shorts-Tail descendants, their smaller size Is although a great way of avoiding competetion from larger more specialised herbivores. The Chocolate Scoppels (Chocolatumcuniculus Cautus) tho are quite specialised themselfs, as their favorite treats are vegetables and roots they find with their keen sense of smell and great digging abilities.

Scoppels are very social animals and live In large family colonies and are rarely seen alone. When feeding they are always observing their surroundings, on the lookout for predators.

Blubb Blubb - The Shrish

20 Million Years P.E. (The Late Origocene)

While Macroterra Is a planet of Bilbies, the invertabrates, which have been seeded to sustain the ecosystem, have changed over the years as well and the most succesfull and dominant ones would be the Shrish. Descendants of Planktonic Krill, they have come to dominate the oceanic ecosystem.

The Shrish started out as shrimp like swimmers that propelled themselfs through the water with feathery legs, Shrish like these still exist, the OJ Reefer (Pseudocaris Citrinasuccus) Is an good example. But some didnt bother to actively swim and become bottom feeders, like the Gravel Trilokrill (Trilobitacaris Fundusmaris).

Although some Shrish have optimized their swimming abilities,

some Shrish would eventually develop a shorter and more streamlined body, and give rise to active swimmers that propelled themselves with undulating waves of their abdomen and tail. Becoming a more efficient means of propulsion, these shrish would eventually modify their rearmost swimming legs along with their tail fan into a caudal fluke of sorts.

But these fluked Shrish didnt just stop there, as another adaption proved efficiency, pseudo-jaws.

These pseudo-jaws are formed from their elongated barbed rostrums and first front legs.

With these they can easily catch slippery prey an apply pressure to crack their hard shell.

two of these jawed Shrish are the Great White Shraw (Pisciscaris Magnusalbus) and the Cherry Shrimpede (Centipedecaris Cerasus).

Both are fearsome predators In their own right, the Shrimpedes are small slender Eel-like ambush predators, while the Great White Shraw are rather large at 1 meter In size they are true giants among the arthropods.

But not all of those jawed Shrish are predators, the Green Weedpicker (Herbariumcolligens Viridis) Is an rather peacefull grazer, using their jaws to pluck and crush tough algea, seaweed and corals.
