The Antlion Larva is an enemy that is only spawned when Antlion Eggs are destroyed. Its speed, jump height, occurrence in numbers, and small size make it a significant threat in the early game.

Multiple Antlion Larvae can spawn from a single egg, which breaks when hit with any weapon or tool. Unlike the Alien Larva, Antlion Larvae will not grow into an Antlion, Antlion Charger, or Antlion Swarmer.

Trivia

• The Bestiary entry for the Antlion Larva: "Freshly hatched from their eggs, larval antlions should not be underestimated. Though young, they are still very aggressive."
