Kyotonbo[1] are enemies in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. These tall dragonfly-like creatures appear exclusively in the Tree Zone's Roots Course. Kyotonbo simply fly in darting stop-start motions and home in on Mario, and they can be defeated either from being jumped on or from a fireball being thrown at them.

Names in other languages[edit]
Unlike most mainline Super Mario titles, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins did not receive officially localized enemy indexes at the time of its release on the Game Boy and not all enemies are listed in its instruction booklets. Consequentially, most available non-Japanese names come from localizations of the Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia.
