'''Bulborb Larvae''' ({{j|ベビーチャッピー|Bebī Chappī|Baby Chappy}}) are [[enemies]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 4]]''. As their name would imply, they are juvenile Bulborbs. They have the typical beige snout of Bulborbs, but their behind is white with only a dab of red on the very end. A small, pointy appendage can be seen below the red spot, its use is unknown; it could be some form of tail, or an {{w|umbilical cord}}. Given that they are young, their size isn't much larger than that of a leader. They are the true juvenile [[grub-dog]]s, as [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s are members of the [[breadbug family]] and merely imitate Bulborbs. They are hard to kill in swarms, but have low [[health]]. Bulborb larvae are infamous for their ability to quickly kill [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]: the creature's bite is fast and fatal. However, the small creatures can be destroyed with one [[punch]] from a [[leader]], so it is considered more effective to keep Pikmin away from the Larvae and attack with Olimar and his partner.

Since these larvae can only spawn from certain [[Empress Bulblax]]es, they can't be found anywhere that doesn't have one.

;Story mode:

However, in {{p4}}, the larvae can also spawn from [[Dirt-mound]]s.

Another way is to get the Pikmin you do not need and try to kill them in swarms by controlling them, though this method is not recommended as it can cause a lot of fatalities.

* Bulborb Larva do not have an animation for standing still. When viewed from out of their detection range they'll use their walking animation, appearing to endlessly wriggle in place.

**Although, since Bulborb Larva are not exclusively born from the Empress Bulblax in ''Pikmin 4'', it can be implied that each larva's subspecies is specifically unclassified.
