Zenith Species (Japanese 辿異種 Teishu) are strong monster individuals that have gone through their own independent changes over the years, compared to other individuals of the same species. Zenith Species have unusually developed parts that they use to their advantage in nature. These parts can be a monster's horn, wings, claws, beak, etc. The Zenith Species were introduced in Monster Hunter Frontier Z. There are 23 Zenith Species as of 2024.
