Crystallites are medium-sized insects with powerful pincers and are territorial cold-weather scavengers. Their icy shell is formed during their larval stage, when they hang upside down in an ice cavern. Moisture runs off the body, causing the hard ice shell to form which the Crystallite will have for the rest of its life.[2]
Samus encounters Crystallites in Phendrana Drifts on Tallon IV. They can be found roaming the land or in caverns, walking on ceilings and on the ground. They pose no threat to Samus and can be easily defeated by a Missile or a shot from the Plasma Beam.
