Lava dragon

 Lava dragons reside in the Lava Dragon Isle in the Wilderness. They were formerly red dragons, but have spent too long surrounded by lava and have been transformed. Lava dragons attack with melee, as well as with dragonfire. They are weak to stab and ranged, making the Zamorakian hasta and Rune crossbow popular weapons choices. They are also quite weak to magic, making fire bolt a slow but profitable method of killing them. Another choice is to use the Slayer dart spell, as it can hit quite hard for the runes required.

Lava dragons are the only monsters to drop the Lava dragon bones, which give 85 prayer experience when buried. However, burying them on Lava Dragon Isle grants 255 prayer experience instead.

Although they drop Black dragonhide, they do not count as black dragons for a slayer task.
