Description: F. polpetta is a small terrestrial creature first discovered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in 2024. No two F. polpetta specimens are visually identical, though in general their exterior is gently lumpy in texture and soft beige in hue and speckled like the sands of Jericho Beach. Atop each F. polpetta specimen is a singular vertical cavity measuring 0.4 cm in diameter and 3 cm in depth. Curiously, nearly every F. polpetta specimen reported to date has been found with several flowers nestled within this cavity. F. polpetta bears an uncanny resemblance to a large meatball in shape and size. It measures approximately 7 cm in diameter and 6 cm in height and weights approximately 95 grams each.
