In Pikmin: Elemental Speciation
A type of Sheargrub that burrows into the ground to find water in dry areas. It has a pointed mouth like the Male Sheargrub, but its facial carapace extends farther backwards above and below its head. This carapace is light brown in coloration with small green lines running across its face from its mouth to the edges of the carapace, representing grooves. Its main body is tinted light yellow, is speckled with stuck-on pieces of sand, but otherwise has a similar texture to the body of other sheargrubs. When it spots a Pikmin, it will attempt to grab one and eat it, after which it will burrow into the ground and create a geyser of water, which sprays water drops randomly, which will make any pikmin hit wet, and in danger of dying. After the geyser subsides, it will re-emerge. Rarely in certain locations (eg. some cave sublevels rich in plants, like rest levels), they will make a geyser of nectar instead of water, which will flower any pikmin that touches it for as long as it lasts, as well as sometimes spraying out a single concentrated spray droplet after subsiding.
