Version 0.11: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
Although spiders are generally considered the most dangerous of Crawl's invertebrates, there are a number of deadly insects found in the Dungeon as well. Their abilities vary greatly by order, but the majority of them share a weakness to poison. They can be found everywhere except the extended end-game.
Ants
- a Worker ant - Poisonous critters that seek out puny adventurers to feast upon.
- a Soldier ant - The sort of giant ant that can chomp through armour and shake off stab wounds. Extra poisonous!
- a Queen ant - Although a heavy hitter in melee, her slow speed makes her much less intimidating than her minions.
- a Ant larva - About as threatening as a goblin with three limbs missing.
Bees & Wasps
- k Killer bee - Painful alone and deadly in swarms, these pack hunters are a menace to the unprepared.
- k Bumblebee - A bigger bee with a much less terrifying history of player deaths.
- k Queen bee - Although extremely venomous, their lack of maneuverability makes them easy to deal with.
- y Yellow wasp - Although slower than killer bees, their stings slow and paralyse their victims.
- y Red wasp - An oversized yellow wasp dyed red in the blood of its victims.
Beetles
- B Goliath beetle - Slow enough for even nagas to kite, but durable enough to make you wonder if it's worth the effort.
- B Boring beetle - Beefy, but easily avoided. They tend to turn any floor with rock walls to swiss cheese if left around long enough.
- B Boulder beetle - These tanks normally lumber along slowly, but they can suddenly start rolling at break-neck speed.
Butterflies & Moths
- b Butterfly - Harmless and pretty and occasionally in the way.
- y Moth of wrath - These fluttering nuisances are capable of mystically enraging anything they come across.
- y Ghost moth - Invisible psychic predators with debilitating poisons.
