Desiccated Skitter Leaves, introduced in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', are the more hostile members of the skitterling family. They actually have a means of killing Pikmin by grabbing them and eating them swiftly. They resemble withered and dead leaves rather than the healthy ones Skitter Leaves imitate. The edges of the leaves are serrated and sharp, unlike its green relative. | Desiccated Skitter Leaves, introduced in ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', are the more hostile members of the skitterling family.

The Skitter Leaf is a harmless enemy introduced in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. They resemble a regular, healthy leaf. Skitter Leaves are fairly uncommon enemies, but are often found in groups. If approached, a Skitter Leaf will try to scurry away as it has no means of defense or offense. They can often be more trouble than they're worth, since they are only worth one [[Poko]] and seed. | The Skitter Leaf is a harmless enemy introduced in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.

"Skitter" is a verb that means "to run around", referring to how these creatures scurry about. This word is used in the family member's names, as well as the name of the family itself, which is a portmanteau of "skitter" and "ling", a suffix meaning that something is concerned with the root of the word it is found in. | "Skitter" is a verb that means "to run around", referring to how these creatures scurry about.
