Jyuratodus is a Piscine Wyvern first introduced in Monster Hunter: World.
Appearance
Jyuratodus is related to Lavasioth, and as such resembles a bipedal coelacanth fish. It has two dorsal fins, two pectoral fins, two pelvic fins, and a long, thick tail. Instead of covering itself in hardened lava like Lavasioth, Jyuratodus covers itself in mud and sludge. Jyuratodus's head, body, legs and tail can be wounded.
Behavior and Abilities
Jyuratodus is able to cover its body in mud for protection, and spits a watery sludge that can temporarily trap hunters to defend itself. Jyuratodus leaves behind solid mud piles when it swims, which hunters can use as platforms to avoid being slowed down by the swamp water.[1] Much like Barroth, Jyuratodus will roll in mud to cover its body in it.[2] The mud will protect Jyuratodus's body from damage as well as defend against the Thunder Element, its primary elemental weakness.
Jyuratodus is known to clash with Barroth, as the two share the same muddy habitats. During a Turf War, Jyuratodus will ambush Barroth from below and attempt to constrict and bite the brute wyvern, only to be thrown violently to the ground afterward, damaging both monsters. When left undisturbed, Jyuratodus won't bother anything within their territory, such as the Gajau it shares the area with. Once disturbed, however, Jyuratodus will turn aggressive and try to injure threats.

Hunting Tips
“ | It's nearly impossible to fight a Jyuratodus in its swampy home. Coerce it to land, and then use water element weapons or your slinger to slowly chip away at its hardened mud armor. | „ | |
- MHW's Hunter's Notes |
“ | A Jyuratodus's mud-caked carapace is tough, so use water-elemental weapons to dissolve the mud and get to its squishy core. Stepping in its mud slows you down, so pay attention to your footing. | „ | |
