The Cloaking Burrow-nit (ハオリムシ) is an insect-like creature found in Pikmin 2. It rests face-down in the ground. It has a dark blue shell with large, red eye markings on it. If it is approached, it emerges and attempts to follow and attack the Pikmin. It has a sharp proboscis which can be thrust into prey, piercing the victim and eventually swallowing it. The best way to beat it is to swarm its weak spot, which is its face, or throw Purple Pikmin onto its back (they will eventually crawl towards the face for maximum damage). Burrow-nits, primarily the one in Wistful Wild, will deconstruct nearby bridges, similar to Mandiblards.
This creature isn't seen often, and it is not very dangerous, as it can only kill one Pikmin at a time.
Cloaking Burrow-nits can be easily mistaken for treasure for early players. Bright colors and excellent camouflaging help keep it up.
Two close relatives, the Joustmite and the Flighty Joustmite, appear in Pikmin 3. The Joustmite seems to have a much darker color scheme and the shell covers more of its body, but seems to function the same. They can also eat more than one Pikmin at a time. The Flighty Joustmite has been given the gift of flight and strikes the ground with its needle-like proboscis.
Notes
Olimar's Notes
"The snake-eye pattern on this beast's shell is one of the most distinctive features of the burrow-nit family. The red pattern of the cloaking burrow-nit and the spikes around its mantle make it easily identifiable while still making it a representative specimen of the burrow-nit family. The shell on the cloaking burrow-nit's back also provides a frame that fixes its muscular structure in place, and appears to give the creature its powerful needle-launching attack."
Louie's Notes
"Boil in the shell with a pinch of salt until bright red, and serve piping hot with tartar sauce."
Nintendo Player's Guide
"The vulnerable area of a Cloaking Burrow-nit is very close to its most dangerous parts: it's mouth and tentaclelike tongue. A Burrow-nit spends most of its time partially buried in the ground. When your troops get close, it will attack. Toss Pikmin at its head and try to defeat it before it before can eat a sprout."
