Desert Seltas Queen Ecology

In-Game Information
A large Neopteron known to use the pincers at the tip of its long tail to grasp male Seltas -- or anything it considers a threat. Once it has a male in its grasp, this Desert subspecies may even violently throw its mate at enemies.

Taxonomy
Order: Coleoptera - Suborder: Adephaga - Family: Seltas

Desert Seltas Queen is a very large Neopteron that is the subspecies of the Seltas Queen and the female counterpart of the Desert Seltas.

Habitat Range
Desert Seltas Queen have only been seen inhabiting the Dunes and some parts of the Everwood.

Ecological Niche
Desert Seltas Queen are large and highly opportunistic predators that have a high position in the food chain. Herbivores such as Rhenoplos and Apceros are common prey. But other monsters like Genprey, Remobra, Cephalos, or Hermitaur may find themselves in risk of being eaten. Even a Desert Seltas might not be safe from her hunger. The known competitors of this giant insect consist of Tigerstripe Zamtrios, Shrouded Nerscylla, Seregios, Rajang, and Elder Dragons like Teostra. She may also have to deal with Diablos and Monoblos due to their high aggression. But with an incredibly tough exoskeleton, powerful grasping forearms, mucus balls and extremely long and deadly tail pincers they are a force to be reckoned with.
