'''Honeywisps''' ({{j|ピキマキ|Piki Maki| | '''Honeywisps''' ({{j|ピキマキ|Piki Maki|Piki {{w|Aphid}}}}) are creatures found in the first two [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]] and ''[[Pikmin 4]]''. They float across the air carrying [[nectar]] (in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'') or an [[egg]] (in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 4]]''), and tend to glow and make high pitched cries, appearing and disappearing out of thin air if a [[leader]] passes nearby set places where they can show. A Honeywisp's egg, like any other, may contain [[nectar]], a [[spray drop]], or [[Mitite]]s. | ||

|common = Honeywisp. It is a combination of "honey", due to the sack of [[nectar]] it carries in the first game, and "{{w|wisp}}", a mythical entity that resembles a floating lamp's light; effectively, the Honeywisp faintly emits light and floats about. | |||
Its scientific name is ''Nektara fatuus'', with ''Nektara'' being close to the Latin ''nectaris'', or "related to nectar", and ''fatuus'' being the Latin component of the term ''ignis fatuus'', another name for the Will-o'-the-Wisp, a similarly ephemeral floating creature. Internally, it is called <code>qurione</code>, a romanization of "{{w|clione}}". A clione, or sea angel, is a creature with a transparent body, much like that of the Honeywisp. | |jpcommon = {{j|ピキマキ|Piki Maki}}. It is similar to {{j|アリマキ|arimaki|{{w|aphid}}|f=tp}}, but with {{j|アリ|ari|ant|f=tp}} replaced with "[[Pikmin family#Naming|Piki]]" (an early name for Pikmin), since the way Pikmin drink the Honeywisps' nectar is similar to how some ants farm aphids and drink their honeydew. | ||
