In-Game Description

Monster Hunter Freedom 2 / Monster Hunter Freedom Unite A Vespoid-like monster with a thick shell. Easily damaged, there are rarely any usable materials left to harvest from them once killed. But if you could sap their health gradually... Monster Hunter Generations / Generations Ultimate A Vespoid-like monster, but with a thicker shell. Easily damaged, there are rarely any usable materials left to harvest from them once killed. But if you could sap their Health gradually... Threat Level (危険度): ★ Monster Hunter World / Iceborne Small insects that are found primarily on land. They're highly territorial and will attack anything that approaches them. Gather their materials by attacking them with the slinger. Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Small Neopterons found primarily on land, featuring two developed horns and legs peppered with sharp thorns. Extremely territorial, Hornetaurs attack any who approach without mercy. When processed, the shells around their body boast impressive strength; in their current state, however, too much "umph" when attacking can easily obliterate them, rendering them useless. Collect those materials with care! Monster Hunter Frontier G A large Neopteron related to Vespoids. They primarily dwell on the ground of damp and dark places. However, like their cousins, they are easily destroyed by most weapons. It is reported that they are extremely susceptible to poisons.
