Its name is a pun on {{wp|praying mantis}}, a kind of insect, and {{wp|manta ray}}, a kind of stingray. Preying Mantas move up and down in a small area, and therefore do not pose much of a threat to the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s. The Yoshis can simply defeat them by shooting a torpedo at them in their [[Submarine Yoshi|Submarine]] forms. They appear again as enemies in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. | A '''Preying Mantas'''<ref name=NP>Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson. ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide.
