The '''Cloaking Burrow-nit''' is an insect-like creature found in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It has a dark blue shell with large, red eye markings on it. When it hunts, it chooses a place where it rests face-down in the ground, patiently waiting for its prey to draw near. If it is approached, it emerges and attempts to follow and attack the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] until they escape out of its pursuit range, when it then promptly returns to the spot where it was resting and reburrows its head to wait for its next opportunity to chase prey. It has a sharp proboscis which can be thrust into prey, piercing the victim and causing damage. The best way to beat it is [[Group move|swarm]] its weak spot, which is its face, or [[throw]] [[Purple Pikmin]] onto its back (they will eventually find their way towards the face for maximum damage). Burrow-nits, primarily the one in [[Wistful Wild]], will deconstruct nearby bridges, similar to [[Mandiblard|Sheargrubs]]. This creature isn't seen too often, and is not very dangerous, as it only can kill one Pikmin at a time when it attacks.

A Cloaking Burrow-nit can be seen in the background of the [[Distant Planet]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', but other then that has no trophy or other mention in the game.

This creature's replacements, the [[Joustmite]] and the [[Flighty Joustmite]], appear in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'' with slightly redesigned appearances, though they are still recognizable as part of the Burrow-nit family due to their proboscis and eyespots.
 
{{Notes|olimar=y|louie=y}}

== Strategy ==
===Pikmin===
[[Group move|Swarming]] it is a suitable method, and 25 Pikmin are enough, as the hard shell protects it from all attacks, leaving only the face vulnerable, but usually, the Pikmin will revert from the shell to the face.

===Captains===
Using both [[Leader|captain]]s, the face must be repeatedly [[punch]]ed while making sure not to be hit with the proboscis. It may attempt to shake off the captains, but this action can be foreseen and avoided easily.

== Trivia ==
*The "Trilobitin" in the Cloaking Burrow-nit's scientific name may have to do with its resemblance to the real world [[Wikipedia:Horseshoe Crab|horseshoe crab]], a relative of the prehistoric arthropods known as "Trilobites". The Cloaking Burrow-nit looks like a "backwards horseshoe crab", with its proboscis in the spot of a horseshoe crab's tail, and fake eyes in the spot where the real eyes and face would be on a horseshoe crab.
