The Segmented Crawbster is a [[Enemy#Boss|boss]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', found exclusively on the tenth sublevel of the [[Cavern of Chaos]]. It attacks by curling into a ball and chasing after its prey in an attempt to crush them. If it hits a wall, it becomes temporarily incapacitated and exposes its only weak point: its soft underbelly. When agitated, it can use its massive claw arm to swipe away [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. After the boss is defeated, it drops the [[Silencer]].

The Armurk is the boss of sector 3 of ''Hey! Pikmin''. It resembles a {{w|horseshoe crab}}, with a gray striped shell and many green, jellylike feet. It has two weak points, one on its tail, and the other being its underbelly, both of which are bright pink.
The Armurk attacks by backing Olimar and his Pikmin against a wall, where it will attempt to lean back and crush them. However, this exposes its belly, allowing it to be attacked. After taking enough hits on its belly, it will turn around and retreat, allowing Olimar to attack its tail. It can also climb onto the ceiling, where it will drop down, curl into a ball, and bounce around the room. It drops the [[Royal Suite]] after being defeated.

The family name consists of the words "creep" and "{{w|crab}}". While "crab" refers to how the Segmented Crawbster is crab-like, the term "creep" here could either refer to its unsettling nature, or to the way it rolls being related to {{w|Adhesion railway#Forces on wheels, creep|railway adhesion creep}}.
