Molluscataur

Molluscataur are Carapaceons that are usually encountered in the Mycelium Hills.

Physiology
Molluscataurs are carapaceons that thrive in the grassy plains of the Mycelium Hills. Lying flat like stone until something gets close and the monster launches its mouth at whatever moves. Unlike other Carapaceons, Molluscataurs lack claws but they instead can produce a gooey substance that traps prey items, allowing the monster to feast on the captive meal. They're larger than Hermitaurs and Ceanataurs, being around the size of an adult Popo or Aptonoth.

Behaviour
Ambush predators that lie in wait until something steps in their line of sight and then attacks. Very aggressive but tends to not pursue prey past the grassy plains due to their lack of maneuverability.
