Troiken indictidile

The Troiken indictidile was a predatory, non-sentient insect species native to the jungle planet Troiken. They curled into a ball and rolled through undergrowth in order to impale prey on the irregularly shaped spikes that covered their long, thin bodies. The insects had black skin and an orange eye located at one end of their body.
The Tynnan Bowspritz, who served as both a Jedi Master and a biologist, included information about indictidiles in the "Galactic Bestiary" chapter of The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force, a book given to students of the Jedi Order that was published around the year 990 BBY.The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force was published a decade or more after the end of the New Sith Wars, which ended in 1000 BBY, according to The New Essential Chronology.
