These small flying critters prey on boomers. They take bites out of boomers while flying by, ripping off a small chunk of their flesh with their sharp fangs. 
The flying flatworems use luminescent patches to communicate with each other like fireflies.
Their light shows are almost necessary, as in the perpetual twilight of the marshes, the relatively poor eyesight of the ribboners is unable to detect coloration or other markings that would indicate gender properly.

These ribboners have a pouch that connects to their gullet. They use this pouch mainly for storing food, but one curious reproductive tactic has emerged. After their bioluminicent mating dance, the female lays dozens of eggs in a azrach branch cup, which the male then inseminates and seemingly consumes. The male places the eggs within it's mouth pouch and starts looking for a bigger creature, such as the ever abundant swamp boomers, though anything with exposed flesh, or even thin carapace will do, as the fangs and stomach acids of this creature can break through even more resilient materials.
Upon spotting a suitable creature, the ribboner charges it, and plunges it's fangs to it's victim. It bites a circular hole in the host's flesh, and starts vomiting acids, slime and acid resistant eggs inside the creature.
The acid melts a deep enough cavity for the eggs and the slime hardens and forms a seal to the wound, which prevents the eggs from being uncovered.
Within the flesh of the host, the larval ribboners feast until they are big enough to fly. Then they burst out of the host's body in a flash of bioluminicent light.
This parasitism can be lethal, or simply crippling ,depending on the size of the host.

<br />-> Great Sky Ribbon]]

The great ribboner is a large aerial predator that hunts small ground critters, other fliers, even young joords. Balloon dahons, young boomers, other smaller ribboners, everything goes. They capture prey with their razor sharp fangs, picking it apart and eating it mid flight. They also have very accurate eyesight, allowing them to track creatures from afar. Their long wings help them fly better, and their increased bioluminincence allows the swarm of these creatures to communicate with each other even better.

The massive wings allow of the Great Sky Ribbon to undulate through the sky with speed and agility. These guys feed on mostly dahon and ngung although they are capable of eating plants. 

===Streaker===

<br />Progenitor: Previous]]

This species of Ribboner is adapted to life in the Jungle. They fly at blinding speeds, leaving a trail of light in the eyes of those which see it whiz past from bioluminescent organs on their sides. For mating, they follow the streak, depending on the color, which which signifies the gender while in heat.
They eat fruit for the sugary juices, because flying at the speeds they do burns a lot of energy. Females preparing to lay eggs will opportunistically scavenge fluids from freshly dead animals.

These ribboners feed on small bugs. While in flight, they build up a strong electrical charge which deters predators. On occasion, they'll spark small grass fires in the burning plains.
