Scientific name: ''Suprictis rubro''
The Careening Dirigibug is an enemy found only [[Cave|underground]] in ''Pikmin 2''. It has five balloon-like appendages that keep it suspended in mid-air. When approached, it pulls a [[bomb-rock]] out of its mouth and after a while, drops it, where it instantly become active and begins counting down.
 
The Shearflea is an [[enemy]] found in {{p4}}. They are small reddish creatures that resemble fleas. They can be found in several caves and the [[Hero's Hideaway]]. Unlike most enemies, when they grab a Pikmin, they don't instantly try to eat them. They instead attempt to jump away from the player and then eat them.

The family's name can be split up into two words: "spring" and "jab". The word spring references to how Shearflea leap towards the Pikmin, and jab is in relation to the way they impale Pikmin.
