Scientific name: ''Trilobitins reclusiva''


The Cloaking Burrow-nit is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. This predator features a hard shell with eye-like markings covering its backside, leaving its face exposed. It burrows under the earth with its shell aboveground, and when prey get near, it unburrows and attempts to stab them with its proboscis.

The Flighty Joustmite is an enemy in ''Pikmin 3''. It is identical in appearance to a regular Joustmite, but has a red colored shell and small wings with which it can fly in the air. Because of this, it can stab downward, and occasionally its proboscis can get stuck in the ground. Its weak point is on the back of its shell as well. [[Rock Pikmin]] are immune to being stabbed with its proboscis.

The Joustmite is an enemy exclusive to ''Pikmin 3''. Its weak point is behind it, while the weak point of the Cloaking Burrow-nit is the face. Its [[stabbing]] attack is useless against Rock Pikmin.
