Himellas[1] (ヒムラ himura?), are insects featured in Metroid: Other M. They are found in frozen rooms in Sector 2 / Cryosphere. The Himellas' wings have snowflake-like structures, and they have blue bodies with red eyes. They spawn from Fly Pods that resemble white compounds, and are essentially identical to Reos found in Sector 1 / Biosphere and Mellas found in Sector 3 / Pyrosphere, but unlike the Reos and flame-spitting Mellas, Himellas are capable of firing small ice shards. Nintendo Official Guidebook for Metroid Other M reveals that all three are part of the same species.

Low-Level Enemies (p. 8)
Reos, Mellas, and Himellas
"Reos, Mellas, and Himellas are bothersome, buzzing bugs that can be found in nearly every sector of the BOTTLE SHIP. Reos don't pose as much of a threat as the other two types of space flies; they simply fly toward you and try to hit you. Mellas and Himellas, however, are elementally charged creatures that are able to shoot flames and icicles, respectively. If Beam blasts are too slow to destroy the pests--they travel in swarms out of their respective pods--Charge Beam blasts will usually take care of them in one fell swoop."

Reo-Family

"Rios are a series of bug-type flying creatures. In Sector 1 is the Rio, Sector 2 is the ice-attack wielding Himella, and Sector 3 is the fire-attack wielding Mella, making 3 different types of Rio."

Trivia[]

  • While not present in the game, Mellows are possibly another species related to Himellas and Mellas, given their similarities in name and body structures (which feature small to no visible limbs).
