Larinoth is a Herbivore introduced in Monster Hunter Generations.
Physiology
Larinoth is a distinctively big monster, compared to other Herbivores and even many large monsters. It possesses a great height, which is mostly attributed to its extremely lengthy neck. The tail is rounded and club-like, with spiked plating that runs along the back and up to the crest on its head. Said plating is nearly entirely green, and the underbelly is a creamy color.
Larinoth appears to be designed after sauropods. Although not based on any specific genus, it has a body structure reminiscent to Brachiosaurus.

Notes
General Notes
- Larinoth's Japanese name, Rimosetosu (リモセトス), is derived from laimos (λαιμος) the Greek word for "neck", and cetus the Latin word for "whale".
- Its English name keeps the Greek word laimos (λαιμος), but adds ocarina (referring to the monster's crest) and -oth, a common suffix in naming monsters.[1]
- The -oth suffix may be shortened from behemoth, and therefore may indicate a monster's immense size.
- Its English name keeps the Greek word laimos (λαιμος), but adds ocarina (referring to the monster's crest) and -oth, a common suffix in naming monsters.[1]
- Attacking a Larinoth while it is eating or drinking will cause it to drop a shiny.
