Rare Endemic Life with High Spawn Rate

Gillopods Have High Spawn Rate in Areas 1, 8, and 14

The rare endemic life 'Gillopod' has a high spawn rate in Areas 1, 8, and 14. Since it closely resembles the Pillopod in appearance, pay close attention to its size and color to avoid mixing them up.

▲ The Gillopod is slightly larger in size.

Capturing a Gillopod during the event quest will not count toward the side mission 'Dareel's Special Research Report'. To complete the mission, make sure to capture it during an on-site Expedition or Field Survey instead.
