Micro-Goombas, also known as Mini Goombas, are miniature Goombas that were featured throughout different installments of the Mario series. They look like regular Goombas, being brown vaguely humanoid mushrooms, albeit they are notably smaller in size. Their main purpose is usually to slow down the players or otherwise impede their progress. They first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3.
History
Mario Series
Super Mario Bros. 3
In Super Mario Bros. 3, some Paragoombas would drop Micro-Goombas onto Mario and Luigi, which highly weakened their ability to Jump temporarily. These debilitating pests were also known as Mugger Micro-Goombas. They first appear in the Grass Land On level 1-1. When the Micro-Goomba is launched, it will float to the bottom of the screen, if they collide with Mario Or Luigi, They will hang on either Brother for a certian amount of time and then will release.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
A similar species called Goombettes are found in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.
Super Mario 64
They also appear in Super Mario 64's Tiny-Huge Island. They appear in the tiny side, and if they touch Mario, he will not get hurt, only knocked a few feet back, but the Micro-Goombas will die. However, they are usually placed near bottomless pits or cliffs, and will often knock Mario off into these.
New Super Mario Bros.
They reappear in New Super Mario Bros.. When Mario is Mini Mario, he can enter miniature pipes. If he enters one, Mario may find a Star Coin. However, in some cases, Micro-Goombas are in the way, and Mario has to bop them on the head to get to the Star Coin. In this game, Micro-Goombas possess the intelligence of any other Goomba, but can be more dangerous, because it only takes one hit to defeat Mini Mario. They can be defeated by any other form of Mario by even simply walking into them. They are the only enemy in the game which Mini Mario does not need to Ground Pound to hurt or kill.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
They reappear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
Paper Mario Series

In Super Paper Mario, Micro-Goombas are not seen but only mentioned. A resident in The Underwhere mentions that he died all because of a Micro-Goomba and a Bottomless Pit. A Sammer Guy named "Micro Boomba" is a reference to this Goomba.
