''Kumo'' (クモ) is the Japanese word for "spider"; however, the species is not, in fact, known as "Kumo" in Japan. It is actually the only species for which the English name was not the same as or similar to the Japanese name in the original version of ''Super Mario Land'', although some other species were renamed in the English [[Virtual Console]] version.

Kumos attack in the exact same pattern as a [[Fighter Fly|Fly]], hopping towards [[Mario]]. Like Fly, some of them drop downward from midair when spawned. A [[jump]] or two [[Superball Mario|Superball]]s can easily defeat it, rewarding Mario with 400 points.

A Kumo also makes a small appearance in ''[[Pipe Down!]]'', although only a picture of it appears.
