Habitat Range
Ruby Phyla-Phola of the Old World inhabit areas such as the Deserted Island, Flooded Forest, Misty Peaks, and the Ruined Pinnacle. Ruby Phyla-Phola of the New World inhabit the Ancient Forest, Wildspire Waste, and the Coral Highlands.

Ecological Niche
Ruby Phyla-Phola is rather high in the food chain, almost at the top. Instead of diving for fish and other aquatic prey, it now hunts for airborne prey. However, it competes with other large predators such as Rathalos, Rathian, Legiana, Nargacuga, Glavenus, and so on. Though the only monsters that truly pose a threat to a fully grown Ruby Phyla-Phola are Elder Dragons and Elder Dragon-Leveled monsters like Deviljho and Bazelgeuse.

Biological Adaptations
Ruby Phyla-Phola retains the leaf-like protrusions that it chartreuse relative has, albeit Ruby Phyla-Phola's "leaves" are shorter in length. Its bright red and blue coloration no longer serves as camouflage, now acting as a warning to other predators. It also utilizes the Dragon Element instead of the Water Element, being capable of shooting concentrated beams of dragon element energy from its mouth.

Behavior
Ruby Phyla-Phola is noticeably more aggressive than normal Phyla-Phola.
