Cryptids (幻獣, genjū) are animals that scientists claim to be a hoax while natives claim to exist or another term would be an animal that has yet to be discovered by science. There is no real difference than a regular animal other than being out of place (Habitat limitations) but some may possess some unique traits. They would function and look no different than any other living creature that is known to exist today and if they are ever found to exist then they would be placed within their correct species, genus, etc. Some are animals that used to live before but have gone extinct. Few cryptids were found to exist after scientific study and finds.

In Touhou, cryptids are animals that are still rare and unknown to many in Gensokyo. Kasen's ability over animals allows her to even control these legendary/unknown beasts.
