Mesoid family

The Mesoid family is characterized by the tripodal, spider-like anatomy of its members.

Proto-Legs
Meso pseudoarachnia

Large predators that share characteristics with the true Arachnorbs, such as their habit of leaping onto passing Pikmin from above. They are able to scare Pikmin into a panic, then eat them at a leisurely pace.

Jewelbomb
Meso fulgoris

Smaller Mesoids whose back leg is adapted into a prehensile claw, which they use to intercept Bomb-rocks placed by Pikmin and roll them back at them.

Extinguishing Elongflea
Scavalcarix extinguo

A roaming creature that does not actively attack Pikmin unprovoked, but leaves behind bubbling liquid with every step, making it a danger to non-Blue Pikmin regardless.
