Unmarked Spectralids seem to not fear creatures that are idling. If there is a [[Mamuta]] in the same level as a swarm of Unmarked Spectralids, it is possible to spot some of the Spectralids land on the creature as it idles. In addition, after both the Unmarked Spectralids and the [[Bulborb|Red]], [[Orange Bulborb|Orange]], and [[Hairy Bulborb]]s have been added to the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]], Spectralids can be seen flying around the former two | Unmarked Spectralids seem to not fear creatures that are idling.

As a result, they can push the bulborb around, sometimes even shoving it out of the regular map boundaries.{{cite youtube|kuO2x6K14ng|of Unmarked Spectralids pushing a Red Bulborb around|published={{date|19|June|2019}}|retrieved={{date|20|June|2019}}}} | ||

| common = Unmarked Spectralids. The word "Unmarked" is used because these creatures do not have any markings on them. "Spectralids" relates to the word "spectral", referring to their vibrant colors. Given that the name of entries in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]] is always in singular form, and there is no instance in the game of the term "Spectralid", it can be concluded that "Spectralids" is both the singular and plural form of the word. This is reiterated on in {{p3}} and {{p4}}, which feature the [[Flutterbie family]], using "Spectralids" as a consistent singular term. | |||

| scientific = ''Fenestari prismatus''. ''Fenestari'' is close to ''fenestra'', which is Latin for "window". ''Prismatus'' is similar to "{{w|prism}}", possibly a nod to how triangular prisms can disperse light in a colorful rainbow; color variety being a strong theme in the naming and nature of the Spectralids. | | scientific = ''Fenestari prismatus''.
