Description

[edit]

It naturally parasitizes all species of Notosuchus by dividing a clone in a fish species called Rinconodus. It then it can be carried by the wind and settle on to the eyes of N. terrestris. Some individuals can reach into the lungs. It can enter the digested food where it can clone themselves on their own. Later, feces of a Notosuchus terrestris are covered with many Dendrogiganteus deinosuchus. Notosuchus terrestris embeds in a "curve" position and the Notosuchus lepidus touches the "curved" position N. terrestris.
