Parabones

Parabones are winged sub-species of Dry Bones that first appear in Super Mario 3D World. They replace Dry Bones, since Dry Bones are not found in Super Mario 3D World.

They fly a small distance above the ground, and attack the player if seen. Like normal Dry Bones, if a Parabones is attacked without the use of a Star, Lucky Bell, or Invincibility Leaf, it will collapse temporarily, but reassemble itself after a short time. During its reassembly, it is vulnerable to getting attacked. A Parabones can also be permanently disposed of if one is attacked so its remains fall into lava or a pit. Unlike their flesh counterparts, the Koopa Paratroopas, their wings also reassemble after they get hit.
