Kalphites

Kalphites are a species of monsters in RuneScape. They resemble scarab beetles and cockroaches and were created by the desert deity, Scabaras. Kalphites are led by a monarchy and their current leader is the deadly Kalphite Queen which, in scientific terms, is called a 'Pasha'. They can be found in the Kalphite Lair, which is located in the Kharidian Desert.

Keris
The Keris dagger has a special feature which can allow a player to hit higher against beetles. This weapon is effective against kalphites. The Keris dagger is obtained from the Contact! quest. If lost, another can be purchased from Osman for 20k.
