The trans-mango with tail is a 12-cell still life.

Glider synthesis

Trans-mango with tail can be constructed with 4 gliders. Several known syntheses can be found in Mark Niemiec's database.[1]

Commonness

It is the 112th most common still life on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue, being less common than trans-ship on dock but more common than boat with hooked nine. It is the 15th most common still life with 12 cells, being less common than boat tie long boat but more common than claw at claw.

The octohash database contains two collisions (both shown below) between a glider and a small constellation where trans-mango with tail occurs in the final pattern. This still life also occurs in the final patterns of 11 collisions in the octo3obj database and one three-glider collision in the octo3g database.[2]
