The '''Joustmite''' ({{j|カブリムシ|Kaburi Mushi|Headgear-Wearing Insect}}) is an [[enemy]] in {{p3}} and {{p4}}. Joustmites behave similarly to the [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]], and are closely related to them. They can be seen as an opposite of the Burrow-nit however, as Joustmites shields the front of their body, requiring the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to attack from behind. Flying variants, known as [[Flighty Joustmite]]s, also appear in ''Pikmin 3'' and ''Pikmin 4''.

Its wings have atrophied into uselessness, so instead it burrows beneath the ground and pops out only to pierce prey with its needlelike proboscis and drain their bodily fluids.

Rock Pikmin cannot be damaged by the Joustmite's attacks, making them a very good option when facing this enemy. When you're leading a large squad, however, any combination of Pikmin can make short work of this enemy. Approach the Joustmite from the rear and attack the creature's fleshy body until you defeat it.|block=y}}

==Trivia==
*Unlike the Cloaking Burrow-nit, the Joustmite's death and shaking animations show that its shell is unattached to its body, making it more of a helmet than an actual shell.

*Although Louie's notes on the Joustmite in ''Pikmin 3'' were unique from his notes on the Cloaking Burrow-Nit, in ''Pikmin 4'' they were changed to be nearly identical. Comparatively, Olimar's notes are distinct in both games.
