Dimorphodon
Creature Guide
DinosaursOverview
The Dimorphodon (also called Dimorph) is a small flying reptile in ARK: Survival Evolved. Known for its distinctive large head and wings, Dimorphodon is a reactive creature that can be both passive and aggressively territorial. While too small to ride, it can be shoulder-mounted and makes an excellent aerial scout and swarm combatant. It attacks in hit-and-run fashion, making it a nuisance in groups but deadly when tamed in numbers.
