I know this might not be the forum for this question, but if there are actual botanists on here, are lychee and rambutan just elaiosomes but people are like the ants distributing the seeds? I did willingly carry this into my nest after all.

Actual botanists?

Let me introduce you to Marimo (also known as Cladophora ball), a rare growth form of Aegagropila linnaei.

I have been wondering for some time now about their edibility, but have found no conclusive evidence to that topic (definitely edible from a fishs perspective), much less any nutritional values or data. Do any of you have a suggestion?

The main Divisions of land plants, in the order in which they probably evolved, are the Marchantiophyta (liverworts), Anthocerotophyta (hornworts), Bryophyta (mosses), Filicophyta (ferns), Sphenophyta (horsetails), Cycadophyta (cycads), Ginkgophyta (ginkgo)s, Pinophyta (conifers), Gnetophyta (gnetophytes), and the Magnoliophyta (Angiosperms, flowering plants). The flowering plants now dominate terrestrial ecosystems, comprising 80% of vascular plant species. - Wikipedia

If only there were a way to group all the different plants…
