Crammed Wraith[edit]
- Main article: Crammed Wraith.
Scientific name: Tumidoculum domesticancerius
The Crammed Wraith is a hermit crab-like enemy found in Hey! Pikmin. When it notices Pikmin approaching, it will push them away.
Naming[edit]
The family name is a combination of the words "shell" and "shelter", as its single member has a shell that is presumably used as a form of shelter.
Tumidoculum is possibly derived from the Latin words tumido, meaning "swollen", and oculum, meaning "eye".
