Fonticulua
Template:Quote Fonticulua are a species of alien organism found on planets and moons with thin atmospheres across the galaxy. They can be sampled with the Genetic Sampler and scanned with the Short Range Composition Scanner. They have a clonal colony range of 500m.
Description
Fonticulua (from Latin fonticulus "fountain", referring to their pores) look like giant fungi. They appear on flat ground: next to craters and in rocky terrain.[1]

Fonticulua Campestris
Description
These fonticulua thrive in argon atmospheres, and can reach four metres in height. They feature huge leaf-like structures to capture sunlight for conversion to energy.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Argon atmosphere
- Icy or Rocky Ice planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.27
Fonticulua digitos
Description
A fonticulua species that thrives in methane—based atmospheres, sprouting a cluster of cylindrical tubes directly from the ice.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Methane or Methane rich atmosphere
- Icy or Rocky Ice planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.27
Fonticulua Fluctus
Description
A species of fonticulua that exists on worlds with oxygen atmospheres. They produce coiling wave-shaped structures which tilt toward sunlight.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planet with thin Oxygen atmosphere
- Icy or Rocky Ice planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.27
Fonticulua lapida
Description
A fonticulua species that exists in atmospheres with a heavy concentration of nitrogen. Growing up along the main stalk are bright gem-like pods. which can break off and create new colonies.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planet with thin Nitrogen atmosphere
- Icy or Rocky Ice planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.27
Fonticulua segmentatus
Description
A species of fonticulua found in atmospheres dominated by neon, appearing as a pyramid—shaped cluster of frilled sections.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planet with thin Neon or Neon-rich atmosphere
- Icy or Rocky Ice planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.27
Fonticulua upupam
Description
This fonticulua species can he found on ice worlds with argon-rich atmospheres. They produce broad hoop-shaped structures to better reflect weak sunlight onto themselves for photosynthesis.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planet with thin Argon-rich atmosphere
- Icy or Rocky Ice planets
- Maximum gravity: 0.27
