Any Other Plant (Mutation)
Any plants from the main trait list other than Silk Plant falls under this trait. These plants grow from the body and NOT from the silk, do not need silk present to be utilized.
Shaped Pupil / Iris (Mutation)
The Insectoplant has pupils and/or irises that are an unnatural shape not shared with any real-world animals. This may be any shape.
Animated Eyes (Mutation)
The Insectoplant has eyes that can move in unnatural ways, having the appearance of being “animated,” such as through having swirling “hypnotic” eyes or pupils that can change shape.

Any Other Wings (Mutation)
Silk Pack sits between these wings, any wings from the main trait list fall under this trait.
Hooves / Avian Feet (Mutation)
The Insectoplant has hooves resembling those of an ungulate and/or avian-like limbs. This may make it harder for the Insectoplant to swim effectively.
NOTE:
This trait only applies to Scoutopods. For any other subspecies, this falls under Odd Limbs.
Shaped Spiracles (Mutation)
The Insectoplant has spiracles that are a shape other than oval or circle. Not all of the spiracles must be the same shape.
Misplaced Body Parts (Mutation)
The Insectoplant has one or more body parts found somewhere other than where they would normally be.
NOTE:
The Insectoplant does not need Misplaced Body Parts if they have Multiple Arms / Legs and/or Multiple Body Parts unless none of the respective body part are in the normal location.
Missing Body Parts (Mutation)
The Insectoplant is missing one or more body parts for reasons unrelated to injury.
NOTE:
This trait can not be used to remove mandatory traits for any subspecies, such as by removing a Teabeetle’s nose horn or Brewmoth’s Wing Lashes. If spiracles are missing, Missing Spiracles is used instead. If a tail is missing, No Tail is used instead. If wings are missing, No Wings is used instead. If the backpack is missing, No Backpack is used instead.
Missing Spiracles (Mutation)
The Insectoplant does not have spiracles going down the whole body (from the neck to the tip of the tail). The Insectoplant must still have at least three spiracles; spiracles can not be entirely removed.
Living Tail / Body (Mutation)
The Insectoplant has parts of their body that are alive separately from the main Insectoplant, such as by having a living tail, or has additional non-Insectoplant bodies.
Note:
If the Insectoplant has additional Insectoplant bodies, Multiple Bodies is used instead.
