The {{Name}} is a creature in the [[:Category:Insects (faction)|Insects]] faction. They are most commonly found in the {{favilink|Desert Canyons}} and {{favilink|Flower Fields}}. They are moderately powerful creatures for how early they are encountered, and can prove deadly to lower level characters traveling through the {{favilink|Desert Canyons}}.

The corpse of the {{name}} can sometimes be butchered into a {{favilink|salthopper mandible}}, which is an extremely strong [[:Category:Long Blades|long blade]] for the early game. It is nearly equivalent in power to a {{favilink|folded carbide long sword}}.
A {{favilink|salthopper corpse}}, which {{name|plural}} have a small chance of dropping upon death, can sometimes be butchered into a {{favilink|salthopper mandible}}. These are extremely strong [[:Category:Long Blades|long blades]], nearly equivalent in power to a {{favilink|folded carbide long sword}}. However, given the low chance both for a {{name}} to drop its corpse (8%) and for butchering its corpse to yield a mandible (15%), there is only a 1.2% chance of getting a mandible from a single salthopper.
