These aren't actually young Bulborbs, so differences in vocalization can be chalked up to bad mimicry.

These enemies closely resemble [[Bulborb]]s in appearance, but are much smaller. Dwarf Bulborbs can be easily defeated by [[swarm]]ing them, or by [[throw]]ing a single [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] directly on top of them. In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', if a leader throws a [[Purple Pikmin]] on it, it will remain attached until the creature's death finishes and its soul is released. In the first game, bothering one will make it release a loud squeal, waking up the nearest Spotty Bulborb. Dwarf Bulborbs do squeal in ''Pikmin 2'', when a Pikmin is thrown onto its back, but the scream cannot wake up any adult Bulborbs. They bark when a [[leader]] or Pikmin is detected by them in the second game, as do the other [[Breadbug family|dwarf bulborbs]] and [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s. If this creature is [[ultra-bitter spray|petrified]] in the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 2)|Piklopedia]], when it breaks out of the stone it runs around eating any thrown [[Pikpik carrot]]s at a much greater speed than normal.

Dwarf Bulborbs have a far deeper-pitched cry in ''Pikmin 3''. They no longer shriek loudly as they did in ''Pikmin 2'' when killed, but instead emit a deep, throaty sound much like the Red Bulborbs in ''Pikmin 3'' do. This change seems questionable, as their smaller larynx should indeed produce a higher-pitched sound than that of a Red Bulborb, as seen with [[Bulborb Larva]], but since they're in their adult stage, this change is not impossible.
