'''Bulborb Larva''' are legless enemies in [[Pikmin 2]] . They are the true juvenile [[grub-dog]]s, as [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s are members of the [[Breadbug Family]] imitating bulborbs. Although they have not yet grown their own teeth like a mature [[Bulborb]], they are hard to kill in swarms, but have low health. Bulborb Larva are famous for their ability to quickly kill Pikmin, as their bite is fast and fatal. However, the small creatures can be destroyed with one punch from a captain, so it is considered more effective to keep Pikmin away from the Larva and attack with [[Captain|Olimar and his copilot.]]

Bulborb Larva are continuously born from [[Empress Bulblax]]es on Sublevel 8 of the [[Frontier Cavern]], Sublevel 11 of the [[Hole of Heroes]], and Sublevel 4 of the [[Emperor's Realm]] in [[Challenge Mode]]. Only 50 can be born, though this number is large, if 50 are on the field, the Empress Bulblax may stop giving birth. On the rear of a Bulborb Larva, the umbilical cord (the cord that connected it to its mother before it was born) can be seen.
