The '''Keel bug''' is a deleted [[Covenant]] species seen in the [[Halo 2]] Collector's Edition Video. It was supposed to come into the battlefield, cut dead bodies into sections, and then fly off with them, as a way of cleaning up the bodies. They were originally going to be used in Halo: Combat Evolved as a clever method of removing NPC corpses to free up memory. This race would have been a gruesome addition to the Covenant.

The concept of an insect-like creature as an enemy may have led to the design of the [[Yanme'e|Drone]] that appears in [[Halo 2]] and [[Halo 3]]. The Drone picking up the Marine in the level [[Crow's Nest]] may be a reference to to Keelbugs.
