Description In the largest lake on Nerrivik, certain patterns of life are turned on their head. Here we can see a Giant Lake Kin (Lagoanomalus gigantidae) hunting a small school of Pykan (Riparus thamna), the latter's relatives usually preying on those of the later in other environments. There are also a few spieces in this lake that would normally be assumed to live in salt water, like the Spotted Natan (Batopteriis maculosa) and Spatule Kelp (Sporadopterae cacumen) that are actually quite common in this body of fresh water. Yet another species entirely unique here is the Floating Lakemoss (Lacuprocerus fluito) that drifts along theΒ water's surface.

It is really nice seeing someone else who uses colored pencils for alien wildlife art; especially when it's good! I am going to have to give your gallery a better look when it's not one in the morning

This looks awesome!!!
Would the Giant Lake Kin be closely related to Illiacranids?

Yes, it is an Illiacranid.
