Espinas Rare Species

The third subspecies of Espinas. It has a milky white underbelly, with a very light grey carapace, finished with light purple thorns. This creature marks a completely new challenge for hunters. As is well known in Monster Hunter Frontier, a monster with a different color doesn't change in appearance alone.

This new Espinas inhabits an area of the Swamp similar to that of the Azure Hypnock. It uses moves similar to that of the other Espinas, but also a new, exclusive attack, that could devastate whole hunting parties, and change the course of the entire quest... it flies into the air, and fires a huge reddish-purple fireball to the floor; the blast created by this explosion fires a huge wave of fire and poison which envelopes vast swathes of the area. However, its still not over. After the initial wave, various spots will still be on fire and poisonous, making them painful to traverse.

Notice that it drinks some water on the ground after the move is performed.

The coloration may suggest either a new subspecies, or it could be that albinoism does occur in monsters, or that its coloration is the result of a simple abnormality at birth. The White Espinas appears in Monster Hunter Frontier 6.0

Trivia

 * Its new devastating fireball is extinguished by the rain, puddles and ponds, possibly suggesting that in a dry area, the fireball can be even more threatening.
 * when breaking its chest, it seems to have purple blood, but when breaking the horns, back, and wings, it draws out red blood
 * It is presumed to be the second strongest out of the species since the Orange Espinas's verison of the Devastating Fireball kills in an instant but the White Espinas's version only rapidly kill decreases health( only when a hunter is engolfed in the flames)
