Maw. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 9 (1d10+4) piercing damage plus 5 (1d10) acid damage.

Tail Pincer. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (1d12+4) slashing damage, and the target is grappled. As an action, the target can escape the grapple by succeeding on a DC 14 Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check (its choice). Until this grapple ends, the thessalhydra can't use its tail pincer.
