Beetles are highly aggressive insects found in the Chozo Ruins and Tallon Overworld of Tallon IV. They burrow themselves into the ground and attack anything that comes near them. While underground, Samus can detect the Beetles' heat signature with the Thermal Visor. They also nest and incubate their young underground.[1]
They typically attack in large groups. One such group attacked Samus in the Ruined Shrine of the Chozo Ruins before she could acquire the Morph Ball. After Samus destroyed those Beetles, she battled the stronger Plated Beetle.
In Phendrana Drifts, there is a stronger variant known as an Ice Beetle.
Beetle Blast
In Metroid Prime Pinball, Beetles star in their own mini game called Beetle Blast. Here, much like many other mini games, Samus's objective is to eliminate all or as many enemies as she can. Samus's Morph Ball stops in front of the flippers, Samus exits Morph Ball mode and points to shoot at burrowing Beetles. The creatures will burrow upwards and out of the ground, swarming toward Samus while she shoots them out with her Power Beam.
