Endermite

An endermite is the smallest hostile mob. An endermite emits purple 'portal' particles, may spawn when a player throws an ender pearl and is useful for endermite lure traps.

Spawning
Endermites have a 5% chance to spawn when an ender pearl lands when thrown by a player (they spawn where the player threw the pearl, not where the pearl lands).

An endermite despawns within 2 minutes, regardless of the player's distance, except for when it has been named with a name tag.

Drops
Endermites drop experience orbs when killed by a player or tamed wolf.

Behavior
Endermites attack players within 16 blocks and become hostile toward any mob if it attacks an endermite.

Endermen attack an endermite within 64 blocks.

Endermites attack iron golems and endermen in Bedrock Edition.

As arthropods, endermites are affected by the Bane of Arthropods enchantment.
