The subject of this article is not named in-game.
The current title is from the game's internal data.
Reptiles[1] are a species of small creature in Metroid Dread. Despite being named "reptiles", they more closely resemble salamanders, which are amphibians. There are two variants, internally referred to as Reptile01 and Reptile02; the key difference is the more ridged face and back of Reptile02 compared to Reptile01. Both variants are docile creatures that scurry across surfaces in the background of rooms on ZDR (such as the "Jaffe Room"). They cannot be damaged, nor can they damage Samus. They are present in every area of ZDR except for Ghavoran and Itorash.
They resemble Lumigeks from Metroid Prime and the unused Salamander creature from Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.
