'''Horned Ant Troopers''' are indigo {{wp|ant}} enemies with striped bodies, yellow eyes and an orange spiked helmet that first appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. They behave and look the same as normal [[Ant Trooper]]s except they wear a spiked orange helmet which prevents them from being jumped on from above.

===''Super Mario 3D World''===
====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
In the game, they are introduced in World 4-1, [[Ant Trooper Hill]]. Horned Ant Troopers have a pair of antennae, red feet, an overbite and wear a spiked orange helmet on their bodies. Despite the spiked helmet, they can be jumped on if they are walking along a vertical surface. Horned Ant Troopers attack by marching (sometimes out of holes or [[Clear Pipe|pipe]]s) and will keep walking on to walls. They are vulnerable to [[Ground Pound]]s, projectiles and both [[Cat Mario]] and [[Tanooki Mario]]'s attacks.

Horned Ant Troopers appear in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', where they are placeable enemies exclusively in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style. They can be made larger by giving them a [[Super Mushroom]] in the editor, causing them to act like [[Big Ant Trooper]]s. They can also be given wings and parachutes.
===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
Horned Ant Troopers make their first appearance in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. They are enemies that are encountered during the second visit to the [[Twinsy Tropics Dungeon]] and during the [[Final Smash (mission)|Final Smash]] mission in [[Neo Bowser Castle]] alongside normal [[Ant Trooper]]s. Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario can attack them with their [[hammer]]s to knock their helmets off, making them normal Ant Troopers. Both Ant Troopers and Horned Ant Troopers are fought in large groups. A Horned Ant Trooper's main attack is to jump up and dive head-first into one of the Bros., which can be [[counterattack]]ed with the hammer. If the number of Ant Troopers and Horned Ant Troopers in battle combined is a multiple of three, they attack the Bros. by dashing towards them in groups of three. The Ant Troopers without helmets can be safely jumped on, but the Bros. will be damaged if they jump on a Horned Ant Trooper. Sometimes, if their numbers dwindle, Ant Troopers can choose to skip a turn on purpose or flee.
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
[[File:MLBISBJJHornedAntTrooper.png|thumb]]
Horned Ant Troopers appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' as enemies and recruitable allies. They are Melee troops, and their [[Special Skill (Mario & Luigi series)|Special Skill]] is Hit 'Em Up.

===''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''===
Horned Ant Troopers make their first appearance in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]], as well as their first appearance in a handheld game, in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' as enemies, but their helmet can fall off, making them normal [[Ant Trooper]]s. Also, some may start the battle without their helmets. Like some other enemies, they have no paper counterparts. They are encountered in large groups. Their main attack is to jump up and dive head-first into a bro while the normal Ant Troopers don't. If the number of Ant Troopers and Horned Ant Troopers in battle combined is a multiple of three, they will attack the Mario bros by dashing towards them in groups of three. Sometimes, Ant Troopers can choose to skip a turn on purpose.
