In Pikmin: Dual Worlds
Sandy Swarming Sheargrubs are unusual mandiblards in Pikmin: Dual Worlds that inhabit deserts, being found mainly near oases, buried under the sand. They have beady, blue eyes, and their small, yellow bodies are covered in sand and dirt due to the lime-green slime that seeps out of their skin. The natural debris coating the body of a Sandy Swarming Sheargrub gives it little extra protection from predators. The slime produced by the creatures is sticky, and only Green Pikmin may resist becoming stuck to it. This slime also protects Sandy Swarming Sheargrubs from drowning, though it dissolves after five seconds of exposure to water. It returns after ten seconds have passed, but only if the creature is on dry land. Sandy Swarming Sheargrubs search constantly for food to feed the females buried deep underground.
