In Pikmin: Spark
The Stringfly appears in Pikmin: Spark as the newly-discovered adult form of the Ravenous Whiskerpillar. They have a similar color scheme to their juvenile form but also have spotted brown wings and a long red proboscis. After hatching from their cocoons, these creatures become solitary, using their silk-producing glands to cover their dens in a silky residue. Although docile to most fauna, they are hostile to Pikmin and other small creatures. Using their long tongue, they can slurp up a maximum of three Pikmin at a time, much like a Whiptongue Bulborb. If there are any corpses or other items in their vicinity to attack using, they bind these items in strong silk and swing the items around like a wrecking ball. This silk can be destroyed by Pikmin to get the items inside. Upon death, a Stringfly may yield ultra-spicy spray.
