The Bug
The death particles that emit from a mob once its 'corpse' disappears can sometimes be black instead of white when inside of a block (like suffocating mobs). See the image attached for a visual example.
How to Reproduce
Dig one block down and inside that hole and spawn a mob (preferably a two-block tall mob such as a creeper).
Run the command below to place a block in the mob (or use any block, just make sure it is a full non-transparent block):
/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:stoneOptionally run the command below to quickly kill the mob:
/effect give @s minecraft:strength 30 9 trueKill the mob while it is in the block.
❌ Note how some particles emitted are black due to them originating in the solid block.
