[[Aeralfos]] is a winged and armed lizard, a member of the same family as the [[Lizalfos]] and [[Dinofols]]. This particular species of that family has appeared only in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'', and unlike its other relatives, it has sprouted a pair of wings enabling it to fly. It is first encountered in the [[City in the Sky]] as the mini-boss, but is also seen later in the [[Cave of Ordeals]] and in [[Hyrule Castle]].
[[Image:Aeralfos_Clawshot.jpg|thumb|left|130px]]The Aeralfos enters combat with a sword and shield. It's shield, however, is composed of the same material as the targets in the game which Link pulls himself to with the aid of the [[Clawshot]]. Indeed, the clawshot is a crucial item needed to defeat an Aeralfos.
In the room Link first encounters the Aerofols, it will hover in the air, far out of Link's reach. It will frequently make dive attacks, but will also raise its shield before doing so to block any projectiles Link may use to stop him from initiating the attack. At this point Link can use the clawshot and latch onto its shield, then pull the Aeralfos down to the ground and slash at him with his sword. As long as Link can maneuver around the Aeralfos' attacks and find its weakspots, it will be unable to get back into the air.
In the City in the Sky, Link must fight the Aeralfos mini-boss through a second phase. It will fly out and through various large holes in the room and try to confuse Link as to where it will strike from next. If Link is lucky enough to pinpoint the Aeralfos, he can use the clawshot tactic again before the Aerofols initiates it's dive attack. The process for damaging it is just the same as before; once Link brings the Aeralfos down to earth, he can hack away at it.
Upon defeating the mini-boss, Link will retreive the dungeon's item: a second clawshot. Though nothing new on its own, Link can utilize the two at the same time, which offers the benefits of the [[Double Clawshot]]. This item is crucial to defeating the boss of the City in the Sky, [[Argorok]].
