A Bucculus | A Bucculus appears plant-like with large, red and spike-covered lips and a purple and sack-like appendage on its back that resembles a strawberry. It hides deep in the ground, with only its lips showing. | ||

It appears as red lips on the ground: if the player goes near it, it will pop up and attempt to stick to the character. Walking over it makes it likely to stick to the player, though this can be avoided by jumping over it or getting close enough to trigger it and preempt an attack, and most characters can run over it as well. When they jump out, they have a deceptively long-lasting hitbox, with decent reach above them, especially in later levels, so the player must jump clean over them. Once stuck, Bucculus will attack by kissing the player repeatedly to deal damage, filling up its "poison zone". | It appears as red lips on the ground: if the player goes near it, it will pop up and attempt to stick to the character.

If a Bucculus misses its grab attack, it will bounce around and plant itself again after a few seconds. If a Bucculus with a filled poison zone is killed, it will most likely drop a [[Maxim Tomato]], but it could occasionally drop [[Food]] otherwise. The player does not need to weaken an "empty" Bucculus to turn it into a [[trophy]] with a [[trophy stand]], since its base health is always very low (even on Intense). | If a Bucculus misses its grab attack, it will bounce around and plant itself again after a few seconds.

|desc=A [[Subspace Army]] enemy found firmly planted in the ground, with only its lips showing. These lips, by the way, are covered with spikes that stick in its victim to... (Get this!)...suck out vitality. Basically, this results in serious damage. The torso area has a poison zone where it stores vitality. The Bucculus not only looks offensive-- boy, it's rotten to the core. | |desc=A [[Subspace Army]] enemy found firmly planted in the ground, with only its lips showing.
