The '''Biffidus''' is a member of a tribe-like group of Biffidus, who act as {{wp|antibody|antibodies}} within [[Bowser's body]], and appear to assist the parasite worm [[Durmite]]. They have round white bodies with black faces and featureless eyes. They also have red feet, and they carry shields and spears. During the events of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', [[Bowser]] ate a huge [[carrot]] which, unknown to him at the time, contained Durmite. The Biffidus assist Durmite in battle by trying to jab [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] with their spears. However, after taking much damage, Durmite will eat the Biffidus, then regurgitate their spears at Mario or Luigi, which they must jump over. In the battle with [[Durmite X]], [[Biffidus X]]s appear instead of regular Biffiduses.
