''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.
Their name comes from「{{hover|蜘蛛|クモ}}」(''kumo'', "spider" in Japanese); 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 same pattern as a [[Fighter Fly|Fly]], hopping towards Mario. Like a Fly, some of them drop downward from midair when spawned. A [[jump]] or two [[Superball Mario|Superball]]s can easily defeat a Kumo, rewarding Mario with 400 [[point]]s.
