|scientific = ''Oculus kageyamii matriarchia'' (hypertrophic, gravid), with ''Oculus kageyamii'' being the scientific name of the Bulborb species, and ''matriarchia'' being similar to the English word "matriarch", which is the female leader of a community. Before ''Pikmin 4'', the scientific name was simply ''Oculus matriarcha''. 'Hypertrophic' relates to {{w|hypertrophy}}, but since there is no mention of the Empress Bulblax suffering from hypertrophy it could simply be in reference to its size, such the [[Titan Blowhog]] and [[Blizzarding Blowhog]]. 'Gravid' simply means pregnant.
