Lac Beetle

The Lac Beetle is an enemy that spawns rarely in the Underground Jungle biome. When killed, it will drop the Violet Husk, which can be used to make Violet Dye.

It is detected by the Lifeform Analyzer.

Trivia

 * Like the Cochineal Beetle, the Lac Beetle exists in the real world, but is a scale insect, not a beetle. It secretes lac, which can be used as dye, or converted into shellac, a brush-on colorant, food glaze, and wood finish.
