The '''breadbug family''' ({{j|パンモドキ科|Pan modoki ka|[[Breadbug|Pseudo bread]] family}}) is a family of creatures in the [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. The first members of this family were seen in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', but the actual family was not mentioned or named until {{p2}}. Notoriously, the smaller enemies in this family mimic the appearance of Bulborbs in the [[grub-dog family]]. Olimar's notes for the [[Dwarf Bulborb]] do mention a "vanilla breadbug", but this is simply referring to the basic [[Breadbug]]. Breadbugs share the two toed feet of grub-dogs, and in the first two games have similar vocalization.

They have a range of lifestyles depending on the particular species, from scavenging for second-hand kills to actually preying on smaller creatures. It is interesting to note that each member of this family can be instantly defeated or at least damaged by [[throw]]ing [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] onto its back. For some reason, in ''Pikmin 2'', thrown [[Purple Pikmin]] will remain attached to small Bulborbs until the enemy's life ends.

The Fiery Dwarf Bulblax is a subspecies of Dwarf Bulborb that appears in ''Hey! Pikmin''. They are similar to the [[Fiery Bulblax]] in appearance, with some minor differences; its eyes are both the same size (though its pupils are not), and its "melted" appearance is much less severe. The Fiery Dwarf Bulblax is the only "dwarf" equivalent of a Bulblax.
