Conchflies are enemies in Hollow Knight: Silksong. They are small bugs that craft shells of sharpened coral to drill through their prey.[1]

Behaviour and Tactics

Conchflies are flying enemies always found in pairs.
They drill into the ground and walls and then launch back out of different surfaces at Hornet. If the tip of their pointy shell hits Hornet, they drill into her and Combo her for Image+Image.

Though they only have melee attacks, Conchflies still attempt to keep their distance between attacks.
