The '''flutterbie family''' is a family of [[Enemy|enemies]] in {{p3 | The '''flutterbie family''' is a family of [[Enemy|enemies]] in {{p3}} and {{hp}}. It consists of small {{w|butterfly}}-like insects that pose no threat to [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]]s. They merely flutter about, occasionally landing, and aren't worth many seeds or [[Poko]]s, but some of them can drop valuable rewards after death: [[nectar]] or a [[Spray#Spray drop|spray drop]]. Their color indicates what they might drop, if anything. In ''Hey! Pikmin'', they can't be interacted with and are not logged, appearing only in cutscenes. | ||
This family consists of two genera: ''Fenestari'' for [[White Spectralids]], and [[Yellow Spectralids]], and ''Fenestrati'' for [[Red Spectralids]]. | |||

White Spectralids are of a color introduced in ''Pikmin 3''. Unlike the remaining Spectralids, these drop no special rewards when defeated, and seeing as they're only worth one Pikmin seed, they're usually more trouble than they are worth. Nevertheless, they appear near the landing site or an [[Onion]], making them useful if the player wants to help grow an army with minimal exploration. In ''Hey! Pikmin'', it only appears once, with some Pikmin chasing it as it flies, until it lands on a stone. After they lunge at it, it flies off. | |||

Yellow Spectralids appear more commonly than Red Spectralids, and upon defeat, they release a drop of nectar. In ''Hey! Pikmin'', it is found just flying forward, as Pikmin chase it. Eventually it flies off screen. | Yellow Spectralids appear more commonly than Red Spectralids, and upon defeat, they release a drop of nectar. In ''Hey!

To note is that, similarly to the Unmarked Spectralids, every time the creatures are referred to in singular, "Spectralids" is used as opposed to "Spectralid" – unlike {{p2}}, there are sentences that explicitly use the singular form. The [[Electric Spectralid]] is the only creature to break this mold. | To note is that, similarly to the Unmarked Spectralids, every time the creatures are referred to in singular, "Spectralids" is used as opposed to "Spectralid" – unlike {{p2}}, there are sentences that explicitly use the singular form.

Two genera names are used in this family: ''Fenestari'' for [[White Spectralids]], and [[Yellow Spectralids]], and ''Fenestrati'' for [[Red Spectralids]]. Both refer to the Latin word ''fenestra'', meaning "window". | |||
