Sessile Organisms
Sessile Organism (着生生物, also referred to "Settled" or "Stationary" type creatures) is a major classification of biology in the Planet Tal, which includes both of Eltus and Talyxian organisms.
They feature ecology which is stationary and remain in a fixed location, this definition allows to distinguish them from every kind of creatures which are mobile and are free to roam around. These type creatures in Talyxian organism group are similar to creatures on Earth such as barnacles and sea anemones that are technically animals, but remain fixed in one location for the duration of their life and gather nutrients from their surroundings.
In Tal's biology, all of these creatures are considered to be 'plants'. Due to this, common sense for 'plants' in Planet Tal allows including Talyxian sessile organisms which do not have chlorophyll and are very different and far from the definition which plants and animals on the Earth and Eltus organism group have.
This definition includes remains of massive corpses or fossils that form a shape which looks like a plant. Like this, Tal's biology defines the difference of animal or plant, based on their superficial behavior and situation rather than actual biological and inner difference; dynamic or static. Due to this, Eltus plants which have a similar biology to common plants on Earth, they as well fall under the same umbrella term, "sessile organisms".
Areas within Talyxian biome, common floras in Tal, are technically a place where are occupied with a colony or flock composed of them. Eltus folks call these areas while referring how it looks like, such as "forest" or "plain".
