Lala Barina is a Temnoceran first introduced in Monster Hunter Wilds.
Physiology[]
Lala Barina is a large temnoceran with a unique appearance. Its six legs are jointed and are covered in sharp-looking spikes. Its thorax and abdomen are instead coated in fluffy hairs. Its abdomen culminates in a retractable stinger, which it can use to sting enemies. The frontmost pair of legs is normally tucked within its body, but can also open up to reveal appendages that resemble clawed hands. Its head is small, with two large, orange eyes and a pair of chelicerae. Its most distinguishing feature, however, is the fact that, when enraged, part of its abdomen opens to reveal a tuft of red hairs shaped like a rose bloom.
Behavior and Abilities[]
Lala Barina can spin a scarlet, glowing silk from their mouths, which they can use for attacking and binding prey or locomotion. They also use it to construct massive scarlet colored nests within the Scarlet Forest. Around these nests can be found "florets" of silk, which indicate its presence. In battle it uses its claws, spiked legs, stinger and mandibles to stab and slash opponents with, it can also can shoot flower-like urticating hairs from its abdomen at its foes.

General Notes
- Lala Barina's name seemingly derives from La bailarina, which is Spanish for "The (she) dancer". Its Japanese name, ラバラ・バリナ (Rabara Barina), also seemingly derives from bara (kanji: 薔薇 / kana: バラ), the Japanese word for "rose".
