'''Bulborb Larvae''' ({{j|ベビーチャッピー|Bebī Chappī|Baby Chappy}}) are [[enemies]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. As their name would imply, they are juvenile Bulborbs. They have the typical beige snout of Bulborbs, but their behind is white with only a dab of red on the very end. A small, pointy appendage can be seen below the red spot, its use is unknown; it could be some form of tail, or an {{w|umbilical cord}}. Given that they are young, their size isn't much larger than that of a leader. They are the true juvenile [[grub-dog]]s, as [[Dwarf Bulborb]]s are members of the [[breadbug family]] and merely imitate Bulborbs. They are hard to kill in swarms, but have low [[health]]. Bulborb larvae are infamous for their ability to quickly kill [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]: the creature's bite is fast and fatal. However, the small creatures can be destroyed with one [[punch]] from a [[leader]], so it is considered more effective to keep Pikmin away from the Larvae and attack with Olimar and his partner.

Bulborb Larvae are continuously born from certain [[Empress Bulblax]]es. Only 50 can be on the sublevel at once, and once that cap is reached, the Empress falls asleep; it will reawaken once 25 or more are killed. The Empress's rolling attack can also crush these enemies, making it useful to clear out a large amount of Larvae.
