It is an offshoot of the Piranha Plant species featured throughout the Super Mario franchise.

Physical appearance[]

When Mario arrives on the Dino Piranha's planet, he lands feet-first onto an unhatched egg which is a pale white with speckles. The egg starts to hatch, and reveals a purple head with green leaves encircling it. When angered, its head turns red. Its body is green with a greenish-yellow stomach. In place of its arms, it has leaves similar to Petey Piranha.

Its feet have white claws, and it has white conical teeth and a red tongue. It has a long tail which has a brown ball at the tip.
