Ecological Research Report on the Predatory Lifeforms "Traptrix"[edit]
The mysterious lifeforms known as the "Traptrix" dwell deep within the forests of the south, consuming any creature that loses its way through the forest. As soon as their existence became public knowledge, countless researchers, fascinated by their unique form of predation, began to pop up, resulting in rapid progress concerning research into these creatures. And in recent years, many new species have been discovered. In honor of those who came before, dedicated their bodies and souls to the "Traptrix", and advanced research on them at great cost, we present the results of their work in this paper.
Various Hunting Methods[edit]

| "Traptrix Pinguicula" | | It captures prey attracted by its pretty figure, using its sticky leaves to seal their ability to move, and turns them into nourishment. |
|
 |
| "Traptrix Atypus" | | Its threads entangle and capture its prey, this creature tricks them with a figure that resembles that of a helpless girl, ultimately capturing the hapless helper with its razor-sharp claws. |

Traptrix Habitats[edit]
While overall the "Traptrix" make the vast forests in the south their home, each species seems to have its own specific territory.

Special Coexistence & Symbiotic Relationships[edit]
There are various species of "Traptrix", but there's been no territorial disputes or other sorts of hostilities between them observed so far. Some "Traptrix" have been observed to be especially 'friendly' with one another.

 |  |
| "Traptrix Mantis" | "Terrifying Trap Hole Nightmare" | | It's been observed that this pair of "Pudica" and "Mantis" cooperate, despite being different species, to capture prey and share nutrients, practically acting as if they were friends. |
