Parabones

Parabones are winged variant of Dry Bones that first appear in Super Mario 3D World, replacing normal Dry Bones.

Parabones fly a small distance above the ground and attack the player if they notice. 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 destroyed if it collapses over lava or a pit. Unlike their counterparts, the Koopa Paratroopas, their wings also reassemble after they get hit, like their other counterparts, the Dry Bones.

Parabones, although only assumed to be called here as such, can be created in Super Mario Maker by sticking wings to any Dry Bones.

Trivia

 * Parabones are the only flying sub-species of Koopa Troopa to appear in a 3D platformer, even before the standard Paratroopa.
