Megascarab

"A large, genetically-engineered beetle. Once the worker caste of an artificial ecosystem of insectoids designed to fight mechanoid invasions, it is now usually seen without its deadlier insectoid cousins. Still, its size and hard shell make it dangerous when it attacks. A eusocial creature, it cannot reproduce individually."

Megascarabs are found in deserts, or spawned in infestations.

An eusocial insectoid, the megascarab cannot reproduce individually. Its hard shell protects it from blunt damage by 10% and sharp damage by 40%. Megascarabs are hazardous to hunt, for if they are injured by a human or a mechanoid, they will turn manhunter and attack any human or mechanoid on the map they can reach. If slain, they can be butchered for insect meat. Colonists dislike eating any insect meat, but meat-eating animals have no such problem.
