Omitaaru/Fauna

*This article is about the animal list as a whole. For animal classes, see Animal Classes.*

This article contains a categorised list of all alien species in ***Icarus Odyssey*** native to the planet Omitaaru, in an alphabetical order. The animals listed are also ranked by group type, size and dietary class.

The species' list from smallest to largest: minumin and invertebrates, fish, bovidae, vegbit, fleshbit, omnibit, parasitic or cryptic, and gargantumax. Other classes are ranked as miscellaneous from herbivory, canivory and omnivory. Many of the alien species are named within Japanese, some have localised names, whilst some do not.

## **Minumin and invertebrates**

The animals listed under this category are divided into four major groups:

* insects;
* myriapods (consisting similarities to centipedes and millipedes);
* arachnids (consisting similarities to spiders, mites and scorpions);
* crustaceans (consisting similarities to slaters, prawn and crabs)

### **Insects**

Insects are pancrustacean hexapod invertebrates. They are the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Insects have a chitinous exoskeleton, a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), three pairs of jointed legs, compound eyes and one pair of antennae.

## **Fish**

The animals listed under this category are divided into four major groups:

## **Vegbit**

This category is miscallenous and is not consistently specifically based on class or family, these are for all organisms that feeds mostly on plants whom have not been categorised previously. **Herbivores** range in size from tiny insects such as aphids to large, lumbering elephants.

### **Bovidae**

The bovaidae comprise the biological family of cloven-hoofed, ruminant mammals that includes similarities to cattle, yaks, bison, buffalo, antelopes - including goat-antelopes, sheep and goats.

### **Rodents**

Rodentsare mammals which are characterized by a single pair of continuously growing incisors in each of the upper and lower jaws. Rodents are extremely diverse in their ecology and lifestyles and can be found in almost every terrestrial habitat.

* Nousagiru :

### **Pachyderm**

Pachyderm are of various nonruminant mammals (such as an elephant, a rhinoceros, or a hippopotamus) that have hooves or nails resembling hooves and usually thick skin.

* Tusked One (or tasukudowan) :

## **Fleshbit and apex predators**

This category is miscallenous and is not consistently specifically based on class or family, these are for all organisms that feeds mostly on meat whom have not been categorised previously. **Carnivores** eat mostly meat, or the flesh of animals. Sometimes carnivores are called predators.

### **Felidae**

Felidae is the family of mammals in the order carnivora colloquially referred to as **cats**. The felidae species exhibit the most diversity in fur patterns of all terrestrial carnivores. These felines have retractile claws, slender muscular bodies and strong flexible forelimbs.

### **Canidae**

Canidae is a biological family of dog-like carnivorans, colloquially referred to as **dogs**, and constitutes a clade. The subspecies, caninae, are known as canines, and include creatures baring features of domestic dogs, wolves, coyotes, foxes, jackals and other extant and extinct species.

### **Birds of prey**

Birds of prey or predatory birds, also known as raptors, are hypercarnivorous bird species that actively hunt and feed on other vertebrates (mainly mammals, reptiles and other smaller birds). In addition to speed and strength, these predators have keen eyesight for detecting prey from a distance or during flight, strong feet with sharp talons for grasping or killing prey, and powerful, curved beaks for tearing off flesh.

## **Omnibit**

This category is miscallenous and is not consistently specifically based on class or family, these are for all organisms that feeds plants and meat whom have not been categorised previously. An omnivore is an organism that eats a variety of other organisms, including plants, animals, and fungi.

### **Bovidae**

The bovaidae comprise the biological family of cloven-hoofed, ruminant mammals that includes similarities to cattle, yaks, bison, buffalo, antelopes - including goat-antelopes, sheep and goats.

* Sarunotsuno :

### **Birds**

Birds are a group of warm-blooded vertebrates constituting the class **Aves** (/ˈeɪviːz/), characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs,

### **Amphibians**

Amphibians are small vertebrates that need water, or a moist environment, to survive. The species in this group include creatures who bare the similarities of frogs, toads, salamanders, and newts. All can breathe and absorb water through their very thin skin.

* Kumagaeru :

### **Primates**

**Primates** are a diverse order of mammals. They are divided into the strepsirrhines, which include the similarities to lemurs, galagos, and lorisids, and the haplorhines, which include the tarsiers and the simians (monkeys, including apes and humans).

* Dijongo :

## **Gargantumax**

Gargantumax is the collective term for all living organisms whom are extremely massive in size, whether they are animals or plants. All gargantumax creatures are miscallenous, and range from invertebrates, fish, birds, apes and reptiles.

Be mindful that some gargantumax creatures can appear as any of the first four categories listed above, however will be classed as reptiles.
