There seems to have been some gene transfer between toxodenta and stomatocardia.

Someone noticed. My urge to get in touch with them to propose a change is gone for some reason.

My hypothesis is that stomatocardia is actually an offshoot species of toxodenta (though we'd have to do some molecular plastiology research to determine its not the opposite way)

It could also be a case of convergent evolution, do they occupy the same niches?
