Figwort insects

Since this subject has no official name, the name "Figwort insects" is conjectural.

Figwort Insects are small, black, indiscriminate insects found only in Pikmin 1, which swarm briefly when Captain Olimar disturbs certain Figworts, and occasionally other fauna (namely clovers). They do not affect gameplay whatsoever and cannot harm Pikmin. The plants they inhabit also show no signs of disease, so the relationship between the insects and plants is likely mutualism. These organisms are also the smallest of the Pikmin universe, and also the least well known, as there is no information about them.
