Stratum cucumisis
Description
A species of stratum that displays fleshy ovoid shapes that are connected in a narrow pattern across the ground. These are covered with streaks of round photosynthetic cells that absorb sunlight.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Sulfur Dioxide or Carbon Dioxide atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Mean temperature superior to 190 K
Stratum excutitus
Description
This stratum species appears as a mixture of tight concentric ring patterns and mottled proto-leaves in a mixture of dark hues.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Sulfur Dioxide or Carbon Dioxide atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Mean temperature between 165 K and 190 K
Stratum frigus
Description
This species of stratum forms broad interconnected ring structures, which are composed of narrow ridges to capture sunlight.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Sulfur Dioxide or Carbon Dioxide atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Mean temperature superior to 190 K
Stratum laminamus
Description
This particular stratum species gives the appearance of overlapping rock plateaus, each with narrow bands of colouration.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Ammonia atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Mean temperature superior to 165 K
Stratum limaxus
Description
This species of stratum appears as a series of unconnected ovoid sha pes across the ground, which are the protruding tips of the larger subterranean organism.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Sulfur Dioxide or Carbon Dioxide atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Mean temperature between 165 K and 190 K
Stratum paleas
Description
A stratum that blends thick overlapping vines with irregular growths. with varying colours appearing in bands or streaks.
Conditions of occurrence
- Planets with thin Ammonia, Water or Carbon Dioxide atmosphere
- Rocky planets
- Mean temperature superior to 165 K
Stratum tectonicas
