Actions

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage, and the target must make a DC 11 Constitution saving throw, taking 9 (2d8) acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Description

This giant carnivorous beetle uses acid to partially dissolve its prey. When threatened, it can eject a squirt of foul acid from its abdomen that carries foul pheromones to frighten off potential predators. Its heavy carapace makes it a clumsy flyer.
