The most well-recognized Dwarf Bulborb variant, the Dwarf Red Bulborb
The Dwarf Bulborb (Pansarus pseudoculii) is a species of the Breadbug family which, through an evolutionary adaption, mimics the appearance of various Bulborbs to avoid being preyed upon by other creatures. It is active during the day and seems to have adopted a predatory lifestyle, as opposed to its close cousin, the Common Breadbug, which prefers to scavenge for food.
There are three known subspecies of Dwarf Bulborb, each of which mimics the coloration of a different Bulborb variant:
- Dwarf Red Bulborb - Pansarus pseudoculii russus
- Dwarf Orange Bulborb - Pansarus pseudoculii orangium
- Snow Bulborb - Pansarus pseudoculii frosticus
