A dead Joustmite.

Joustmites are a beetle-like enemy that appears in Pikmin 3, appearing similar to the Cloaking Burrow-nit of Pikmin 2. It attacks by sticking out its long, pointy tongue, piercing one Pikmin and then sucking them up. Rock Pikmin, being immune to brute force attacks, cannot be hurt by the Joustmite. It has a white weak spot hanging out of its rear. Flying variations, called Flighty Joustmites, appear as well. The only difference between Flighty Joustmites and normal ones is that, after taking a certain amount of damage, it begins to fly and can only be hit by Winged Pikmin and Yellow Pikmin.
