The Bulbrella is a species of grub-dog named after the umbrella-like membrane on its back. It was inspired by the Pikmin Short Movie Occupational Hazards, during a part in which a Red Bulborb imagined forming the spotted skin on its backside into an umbrella to save it from falling.

The Bulbrella is a unique breadbug appearing in Pikmin Eco. It looks like an ordinary Dwarf Red Bulborb except for its slanted pupils and a large umbrella-like membrane on its back. Unlike most other enemies, they initially appear by gradually floating to the ground before they try and eat nearby Pikmin. Upon landing, they behave like any other dwarf bulborb. It is possible to hit a Bulbrella while it's in the air, killing it instantly upon landing, though it can just as easily be defeated as any other dwarf bulborb if it's already on the ground.
Notes
In-game entry
- “At first, it was classified as its own species, but after further studies, it's revealed that this is actually a dwarf bulborb infected by a parasitic Pikmin, much like the Bulbmin we've studied before. However, it doesn't seem to be influenced by the Pikmin in any way, and instead actually aids from it since the Pikmin's flower membrane acts as a parachute. This must be a case of mutual protection between both creatures.”
