Tussocks grow as grass-like tufts of thin blades. They are the genus with the most species, and each keeps to its own atmosphere and temperature band on rocky and metal-rich worlds.

Their colour follows the star. Most species pay modestly, but Stigmasis, in thin sulphur dioxide, pays as much as any species in the codex.

Species

Where each species was found. The ranges are those of its finds, not limits the game sets; a body that fits every line of one row can carry it.
