Hivemusgo

Hivemusgo is a dangerous hybrid, it's genome is classified, it mutates rapidly and adapts to it's environment quickly.

Originally designed as the solution to climate change, hivemusgo or it's scientific name Alvearebrum lanuginodigium Meaning "Hivemind Moss-Monster" is a creature with various types based on it's environment. When exposed to UV rays and not submerged it is perfectly harmless, however, when it loses this source of energy it resorts to alternate means of gaining energy, namely by consuming anything organic that comes near it.

Should this creature be seperated or split in half both halves will behave on their own, however if both halves encounter each other once again they will connect and behave as one organism. It is described as a hivemind but that would be inaccurate as is more a giant entity.

Despite appearing like a plant and engaging in photosynthesis, Hivemusgo is an animal as it has animal cells.

When exposed to UV rays, the creature is green and resembles various species of moss, mimicking; Swan's-neck thyme-moss, Pincushion moss, Tortula muralis and Evernia prunastri. When not exposed to UV rays it turns red, produced tentaclelike vines and resembles a red Reindeer moss. On the ceiling large 1 metre long beaks resembling those of common snapping turtles await prey. On the floor thick bubbles are filled to their peak and burst with a damaging explosion when touched. Should prey stand still or die it will slowly be dragged into the moss and disappear as it's digested

This species can survive underwater, when underwater it will change to a more blue colour, when it has sufficient UV rays it produces spikes, presumably for defense against fish, when it's UV rays are insufficient it will produce a fake coral reef to help fish breed and survive, on the ceiling it will grow a much smaller beak to hunt these fish. Essentially farming them.

When not exposed to UV rays it produces several beanlike pods which are bioluminescent, this is presumed to allow them to lure their prey into a false sense of security.
