'''Kumos''' are hopping spider enemies found in [[Easton Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. ''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 or similar to the Japanese name in the original version of ''Super Mario Land'', although other species were renamed in the recent [[Virtual Console]] port. | |||
Kumos attack in a pattern similar to a [[Fighter Fly|Fly]], hopping around until it comes in contact with [[Mario]]. In fact, there are no differences in the attack patterns of a Kumo and a Fly. A [[jump]] or two [[superball]]s can easily defeat it. After doing so, [[Mario]] is rewarded with 400 points. Kumos are only found in World 3-2. In appearance, Kumos look much like generic tarantulas that are about the size of Mario. | |||
