Unidentified creatures

Does anyone have any idea what those creatures are? They appear in the ‘family picture’ at the end of the Rayman 3 dossier presse.

Could they be Podocrocks of some sort – perhaps an early design iteration? They have visible lamella on their undersides, so I’m almost certain that they’re mushrooms of some sort. Podocrocks are the only mushroom enemies in the game, and these ones are a similar colour to them, have similar eyes, similarly attack in groups and even seem to be found in exactly the same place in the Fairy Council. If that isn’t enough evidence, ‘les Podcrocs’ are listed amongst the creatures present in the ‘family picture’, which contains one of these unidentified enemies but none of the Podocrocks from the final version of the game.

Good analysis Spiral, they most likely are an early version of Podocrocks, as Haruka said earlier. However, I recently found out that several characters present in the list do not appear in the picture, which makes it a dubious source as concerns names.
