Piranha Pest
From the Super Mario Wiki
Piranha Pests ("Peropero Pakkun" in Japan) are Piranha Plants who appear in only one game; Yoshi's Story, and only appearing in Stage 4-3: Piranha Grove.
Piranha Pests simply resemble the bud of a Piranha Plant with a propeller instead of a stem or stalk. They have tongues almost as long as a Yoshi's, but instead of making eggs, they devour and use the prey for nutrients. If anything escapes the maw of a Piranha Pest, the prey is shrunk temporarily. The only known way of defeating a Piranha Pest is by shooting it with an egg.
Piranha Pests are an exotic variation of Piranha Plant indigenous to Piranha Grove. They appear to weave in and out of the many infamous Piranha Stalks in search of food.
Also, Pirahna Pests are appropratiely named, because in many players' experience, they are incredibly annoying.
They have a close resemblance to the Jumping Piranha Plant.
