Beetles are an insect species that appears on The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! They appear in the episode "Princess, I Shrunk the Mario Brothers," where they have a rather minor role. A quartet of Beetles is shown to be living inside a drainpipe inside which a shrunken Mario and Luigi take refuge. As the Beetles are hungry, they chase Mario and Luigi through the drainpipe in an attempt to eat them, although Mario and Luigi manage to escape. The Beetles resemble a cross between an insect and the British band The Beatles.
