Zamite [1] are Amphibians introduced in Monster Hunter 4 and are the juvenile form of Zamtrios.
Contents
Physiology
It is a small, shark-like creature whose relatively large mouth houses many rows of teeth made for attacking prey and hunters.
Zamite have been sighted in a number of different stages of development, with some having fully developed legs, while others slide on their bellies.
During battle, Zamite can grow larger when it ingests bodily fluids. These fluids also allow Zamites to grow legs if they are ingested by the individuals without limbs.
Behavior
Zamite behave just like Giggi in the manner of aggressively attacking any possible food source and draining them of their vital fluids.
Habitat
Zamites inhabit the Frozen Seaway and the Frost Islands.

Notes
General Notes
- Zamites are capable of shooting a globular substance out of their mouths that inflicts Iceblight. This seems to be similar to the substance Zamtrios use in order to cover their upper bodies in ice.
- Similar to Giggi, Zamite will latch onto hunters and suck on their body fluids to develop legs and grow bigger.
