'''Wigglers''' are a species resembling caterpillars that first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', where they are yellow and slowly moving when calm, but turn red and run angrily about quickly if [[jump]]ed on. Wigglers in all appearances are easily identifiable by the characteristic flower or other plant growing from their head, which can lose their petals if Wiggler are enraged. Wigglers appear usually as enemies, but some are allies and even playable.

According to the Japanese guide book ''Super Mario Encyclopedia The Official guide'', It is written that they are brainwashed by Bowser, so they attack and are usually friendly.<ref>「ハナチャン、でかハナチャン、成虫のハナチャン、わかばちゃんはクッパに洗脳されています...普段はマリオ達にも協力的なのですが...」 ''("Wigglers, Big Wigglers, Flutters, Squigler are brainwashed by Bowser ... although they are usually also supportive by Mario ...")'' &mdash; ''Super Mario Encyclopedia The Official guide'', page 55.</ref>


In ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', a fully grown Wiggler variant known as a [[Flutter]] makes an appearance, confirming that Wigglers are indeed caterpillars. Wigglers seem to transform into Flutters immediately (or temporarily, in some cases such as ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'') without going through a cocoon stage as typical real-world caterpillars do. On the other side, [[Squiggler]]s appear to be a younger variant of Wiggler suggested by its appearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', though this is not confirmed. [[Big Wiggler|Larger variants]] of Wigglers also appear.
