Template:Species-infobox Para-Biddybuds (alternatively written as Parabiddybuds[1]), also known as Winged Biddybuds[2], are variants of Biddybuds that first appear in Super Mario 3D Land. They resemble multicolored ladybugs with bird-like wings.
History
Super Mario series
Super Mario 3D Land
Para-Biddybuds flying under Tanooki Mario in Super Mario 3D Land.
Para-Biddybuds make their first appearance in Super Mario 3D Land, where they are found in groups and fly in circles or in lines. Some groups are seen one above the other or one after the other. Mario can defeat them with any attack, just like Goombas. They generally appear in groups of five, though there are some levels in which less then that number are shown together or they appear individually.

Para-Biddybuds reappear in Super Mario 3D World and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. They act the same as they do in Super Mario 3D Land, appearing in groups that roam in a set pattern.
Mario Party: Island Tour
Many Para-Biddybuds populate the Star-Crossed Skyway board in Mario Party: Island Tour. However, they do not affect gameplay. A pink one also appears as a tile in the minigame Match Faker.
Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Despite Para-Biddybuds themselves not appearing in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a kart designed after a Para-Biddybud appears, known as the Biddybuggy. It has five different color schemes depending on the character driving it. The Biddybuggy appears as a spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
Para-Biddybuds appear in certain stages in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS ports, such as Drop-Road Dash. They can be defeated by having turnips thrown at them, or carefully landing on their heads.
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey
Para-Biddybuds appear in the Bowser Jr.'s Journey mode in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, appearing as usable troops, thus marking their Mario & Luigi series debut. Red, green, yellow, and blue color variants can be used, and each has a different Special. Despite their coloration, blue Para-Biddybuds are referred to as purple in this game. They are flying troopers, and red Para-Biddybuds are strong against Fawfulcopters, while the purple variants are strong against Shy Guys and Bandits. All four variants are weak against red Koopa Troopas and Fly Guys, however.

- European website bio: "These enemies are always found floating together in long rows, determined to get in Mario's way."
