Crawmad Family

The Crawmad Family is a family of creatures featured in the Pikmin (series), they appears in Pikmin 2 and Pikmin 3. The members of the family are crustacean themed enemies.

Hermit Crawmad/Camabarus rustica
The Hermit Crawmad is a small Crawmad that lives in a hole found in or near the water. When the Hermit Crawmad notice a potential prey, it will rush on it and grab it with its claw and bring it in its hole where it will devour it. If the Hermit Crawmad misses its prey, it will turn its back and will try to go back in its hole but since its backside is not protected by a shell, Captain Olimar can throw Pikmin on it to damage the crustacean.

Bug-Eyed Crawmad
The Bug-Eyed Crawmad is a large Crawmad with two enormous eyes that lives in a network of holes and galleries linking them together. Like the Hermit Crawmad, the Bug-Eyed Crawmad will rush on the Pikmin that are near it, however the Bug-Eyed Crawmad is protected by its shell so the only way to expose its soft underbelly is to damage to its eyes until he flip on its back.
