Notes

Gives a significant amount more EXP than normal monsters (300~750 before lights).
Gives enhanced Azure, Amber, and Ruby light based on the level of the Ephemeral Limule.
Appears to have an elemental affiliation based on the graphical faint aura surrounding it (i.e. red tinged = fire, white tinged = light)
Light-based version casts Dia II, Holy, Banish III, Banishga III, Flash, Stoneskin, Shell IV, Protect IV, and Cure V.
- Uses Molting Burst which heals ~10% of its HP, deals damage, and transfers debuffs from the limule to the targets hit.
  - Molting Burst does not need to hit anyone in order to recover HP.
- Cured by light elemental damage including Reprisal.
Fire elemental based version casts Firaga III, Flare, Enfire, Blaze Spikes, Fire IV and Burn.
- Uses Blazing Bound which deals heavy damage and Burn.

Abyssea - Tahrongi
