In Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs
The Empress Breadbug is a massive, elongated breadbug appearing in Pikmin: Attack of the Breadbugs as what could be considered the breadbug counterpart of the grub-dog family's Empress Bulblax. It fights alongside the Emperor Breadbug in the Loaf Territory, where both breadbugs are fought at the same time. It sleeps peacefully on the ground, awakening only if it is harmed, also causing the Emperor Breadbug to erupt from the ground, or if the Emperor Breadbug is interacted with.

The Empress Breadbug is a massive, grublike creature with the head of a Breadbug, its legs and feet dangling underneath, and a body that resembles a row of plain donuts of varying size.

The battle against the Empress Breadbug, and in turn the Emperor Breadbug, is optional but does yield great rewards. Its attack pattern consists of burrowing into the ground, its location signified by the ground bulging, and erupting from the ground underneath of Captain Olimar and his Pikmin to eat them, up to ten Pikmin at a time. Afterward, it will become stranded on dry land and struggle back into the earth, during which it is vulnerable and helpless to attack. When the Empress Breadbug is defeated, it will roar before it succumbs and all but its head segment harmlessly explode for easy carrying.
