The beach pillbeak split from its ancestor and moved into the beaches along the eastern coast of Datura. They feed on any form of decaying matter, primarily washed-up carcasses. Their color has changed once more to help them blend in with the sand. Its first pair of legs have grown longer to help hold up its front-heavy body. Like its ancestor, it rolls up into a ball when threatened. They now bury their eggs in shallow pits, as there are no logs on the beach.
