The Desiccated Skitter Leaf looks like a brown, decaying leaf looking enemy that looks like a part of the ground if it is staying still. Unlike the [[Skitter Leaf]], will attack Pikmin if they come too close. They can be killed easily by throwing a Pikmin directly on top of it, though another one is likely near by and will try to attack the thrown Pikmin. They will not attack Pikmin if they are in a medium group as they may be frightened and feel it is best to remain camouflaged. They are first found in the [[Distant Tundra]], close to where [[Charlie]] crash landed. Their camouflage makes them stick out like a sore thumb, there are only 3 of them here. They're camouflage is way more sucessful in where you encounter them next. In [[Twilight River]], when you rescue the pink onion there are 2 of them on the way. Twilight river's autumn theme makes them way harder to spot. However, [[Pikmin 3]] ramps up the difficulty in [[Mission Mode]]'s defeat enemies. They are in groups of 5-8 so throwing a pikmin gets about 2-3 of them to attack. They even put one behind a dirt wall in [[Shaded Garden]].

These creatures are usually found in the Twilight River, as they are camoflaged almost flawlessly by the dirt and fallen leaves. It produces noises similar to those of a Skitter Leaf, but its sounds much more aggressive. Also like the other Skitterling, upon death, it slowly floats to the ground, and produces a soft noise.
