10 passengers can ride a diplo along with the driver.

All passengers can use weapons while in the diplo.

Rhynios can pick them up.

You have fast gunship now, use wisely.

Wild dinos ignore you while you are on it unless you attack them except if the dino is an allo, spino, rex, alpha rex, yuty, carcharo, giga, rhynio, or insect buffed megatherium which will attack on sight.

Reasons why you should tame this:

1. It can gain food by eating berries and meat since it's an omnivore

2. Since it also eats meat that means you can heal it fast by spam feeding cooked meat on it for 10 hp per cooked meat

3. Its saddle has 2 seats so you can bring a buddy with you while riding it

4. You can equip weapons while riding it

5. It has the most weight of any flyer on the island with 1100

6. It has more hp than a rex with 1400 if you're on ase, 900 on asa

7. It is able to carry almost all land creatures except brontos, gigas, and carcharos

8. It is able to scare off almost al land creatures with its roar besides diplos, paracers, brontos, gigas, and carcharos

9. It can fly and walk in all directions including backwards

10. It can swim in water and has 800 oxygen, meaning that it has capabilities similar to a spino

11. It can land on top of water and glide on it like a bloodstalker

12. It can move its entire body to turn where your camera moves

13. It is the 2nd fastest island flyer in the game only bring 15% slower than a tamed pteranodon

14. It can attack on land and does so faster than in the air

15. When you dismount you will be standing on top of the rhynio instead of falling to the ground

16. It will automatically regenerate stamina passively even in air if you are off of it

17. It is an apex predator so if you are riding on it almost all aggressive land dinos will not attack you unless you attack them first except for allos, spinos, yutys, rexes, gigas, carcharos, megatheriums, and other rhynios.

18. You always have an opportunity to imprint it when you tame it

19. It has an ability which can make it take 40% less damage which is resin armor

20. It can shoot resin projectiles that can do 75 damage or more, and can immobilize even the biggest creatures.

You might think that the rhynio is the fastest flyer on the island, which it is only 2nd fastest but might as well be THE fastest because it literally has the MOST weight of any flyer on the island with 1100.

Top 5 fastest flyer tames on the island:

#5. Quetzal - 12.96 m/s

#4. Tapejara - 15.28 m/s

#3. Pelagornis - 16.38 m/s

#2. Rhyniognatha ~ 22 m/s (tested by myself)

#1. Pteranodon - 25.61 m/s

Note that if you are using flyers to tame other flyers wild quetzals fly at 15.96 m/s and tapejaras fly at 24.64 m/s

You can dismount mid flight, DO NOT MOVE AFTER, you will be standing on the saddle, the rhyniognatha will regain its stamina and you don’t have to land

They can swim underwater!! I just tested this!✧*。٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و✧*。 -you need saddle I think.-

These guys can stick on walls, and pick any size of structure, and it ignores the weight of the items inside of the structure, (e.g vaults, industrial forges,) you can even pick up tree platforms and the structures will stay on the platform, plus it has MASSIVE weight making it essential for carrying heavy items. It can skate and land on water allowing you to regen stam whilst on water, plus it can dive, you can shoot weapons from it, and if you dismount whilst flying, it will regenerate stamina, so ya don't even gotta land!

It actually does not need to be low health. For me it was only 98% health (I did the maths) and it still impreg’d my bronto. You can also get them to do the Impreg by heightening their torpor (I’m pretty sure). Tips for the noobs, they do not spawn at the green obelisk swamp by the beach AND ONLY THE BEACH ONE. They are fairly easy (for me at least) to tame with a high level spino or rex. They can actually be knocked by tranqs or other methods. You can not lead your impreg’d animal to safety if inside the swamp (because of the groups of Rhyniogatha) but you can if outside. Just bring a Shi Taki mushroom amount of trophy’s and random things to make things like cravings easier. They crave things (for me a wooly rhino horn and exceptional kibble.) so be prepared. And last but not least they can swim, fly, run and attack at abysmal speeds so that is a benefit. I will also add that the stamina stat on these things is crazy and you can ride while wielding weapons!

Hey! So... If you are in mobile ultimate edition. Just so you know, their ai is suck. They will not follow you. At this 26 Dec 2024

But hey, if the imprinting is need to "walk with you", just "whistle follow" then punch it till it moves a couple meters

I hope the ai will be fixed soon. And dont try to fly too high, then dissmount, or you cannot reach him anymore (since he will not listen any follow whistle)

Abilities (as of the release of the dossier)

- Arthropleura will sometimes drop an enzyme that works in conjuntion with rhyniognatha glue to form a projectile similar to baboon dung.

- Can glue itself to creatures & cargo (maybe it really can carry much larger dinos)

- Rhyniognatha also have a resin that hardens it shell for a boost, and can shoot resin to either be a literal chaingun, or can help to slow down predators. It’s safe to say that this chunky earwig will be ark’s AH-64 Apache.

- The males release a pheromene that attracts egg laying females to lay their eggs into the “host”. The item can presumably be dropped by dead male rhynio’s. This can be used to mark hosts for the females. This is the wa of taming them. It’s not known if certain creature hosts will improve the taming effectiveness though.

- Screw calling the pest control. The new concept is still very large.

Once you tame one it gets way easier to do literally everything

Do not use to steal wyvern eggs, too slow, only use if you are sure there are no wyverns, if you have resin, take the wyverns one by one, but be VERY cautious.

I impregnated rhymognatha of host bronto lvl 226 and it impregnated by rhymognatha lvl 140 but after rhymognatha born it's level is only 47 an it show that she follows me but she can't walk that's why I can't completed 2 imprinting that's is walk with me so guys have you any solutions

Tired of wasting that resin on your potoato aim? That bothersome compy keeps dodging your shots? Try Rhynios Sniper mode! Simply equip a spyglass and notice your reticle center on your target. Guaranteed hit. Happy hunting.

Riding a frog doesn’t aggro them!

As of November 2025, their ai on mobile ark still sucks.

This thing is jack of all trades master of all. you want to farm its got you covered, you need to go in the ocean this thing can swim pretty, fast you need to murder everything in the tristate area its on it. this thing will do it all.

Say hello, to the only flying tame, you will ever need if it's on the map you're playing on

Yes, it's a pain to tame.However, you do not need to have it a certain birth level EVER.

At level twenty and maybe two points into health.This thing can take two consecutive lava baths on the island and survive.
