#REDIRECT [[List of arthropods]]
 
 
Although [[list of arachnids|spiders]] are generally considered the most dangerous of ''Crawl'''s arthropods, 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.
 
 
 
All insects leave zombifiable corpses, but none leave [[skeleton]]s, meaning that players cannot gain both an undead servant and food by using [[Animate Skeleton]].
 
 
 
==Ants==
 
*{{Red|a}} [[File:Worker ant.png]] '''[[Worker ant]]''' - Poisonous critters that seek out puny adventurers to feast upon.
 
*{{White|a}} [[File:Soldier ant.png]] '''[[Soldier ant]]''' - The sort of giant ant that can chomp through armour and shake off stab wounds. Extra poisonous!
 
*{{LightRed|a}} [[File:Queen ant.png]] '''[[Queen ant]]''' - Although a heavy hitter in melee, her slow speed makes her much less intimidating than her minions.
 
 
 
==Bees & Wasps==
 
*{{Brown|k}} [[File:Killer bee.png]] '''[[Killer bee]]''' - Painful alone and deadly in swarms, these pack hunters are a menace to the unprepared.
 
*{{Yellow|k}} [[File:Queen bee.png]] '''[[Queen bee]]''' - Although extremely venomous, their lack of maneuverability makes them easy to deal with.
 
*{{Yellow|y}} [[File:Yellow wasp.png]] '''[[Yellow wasp]]''' - Although slower than killer bees, their stings slow and paralyse their victims.
 
*{{Red|y}} [[File:Red wasp.png]] '''[[Red wasp]]''' - An oversized yellow wasp dyed red in the blood of its victims.
 
 
 
==Beetles==
 
*{{Brown|s}} [[File:Giant cockroach.png]] '''[[Giant cockroach]]''' - Common pests of the upper floors of the Dungeon, they're mostly harmless.
 
*{{Blue|B}} [[File:Goliath beetle.png]] '''[[Goliath beetle]]''' - Slow enough for even nagas to kite, but durable enough to make you wonder if it's worth the effort.
 
*{{Brown|B}} [[File:Boring beetle.png]] '''[[Boring beetle]]''' - Beefy, but easily avoided. They tend to turn any floor with rock walls to swiss cheese if left around long enough.
 
*{{LightGrey|B}} [[File:Boulder beetle.png]] '''[[Boulder beetle]]''' - These tanks normally lumber along slowly, but they can suddenly start rolling at break-neck speed.
 
 
 
==Flying Insects==
 
*{{LightRed|b}} [[File:Butterfly.png]] '''[[Butterfly]]''' - Harmless and pretty and occasionally in the way.
 
*{{DarkGrey|b}} [[File:Chaos butterfly.png]] '''[[Chaos butterfly]]''' - Dangerous and aggressive butterflies that create raging storms with every flap of their wings.
 
*{{Brown|y}} [[File:Vampire mosquito.png]] '''[[Vampire mosquito]]''' - Pesky undead insects that suck the unwary dry.
 
*{{LightGreen|y}} [[File:Moth of suppression.png]] '''[[Moth of suppression]]''' - Sickly moths that [[suppression|suppress]] all effects of magical items within their zone of effect.
 
*{{LightRed|y}} [[File:Moth of wrath.png]] '''[[Moth of wrath]]''' - These fluttering nuisances are capable of mystically enraging anything they come across.
 
*{{Magenta|y}} [[File:Ghost moth.png]] '''[[Ghost moth]]''' - Invisible psychic predators with debilitating poisons.
 
 
 
==Retired insects==
 
*{{LightGrey|a}} [[File:Ant larva.png]] '''[[Ant larva]]''' - Baby ants that were about as threatening as a [[goblin]] with three limbs missing.
 
*{{Red|k}} [[File:Bumblebee.png]] '''[[Bumblebee]]''' - Bigger, solitary bees with a much less terrifying history of player deaths.
 
 
 
==History==
 
[[0.12]] introduced [[moth of suppression|moths of suppression]] and [[chaos butterfly|chaos butterflies]] and removed [[bumblebee]]s and [[ant larva|ant larvae]].
