Wii]]''. They are [[Manta]]s that are green and wear a pair of swim goggles. Jumbo Rays can leap and fly through the sky, allowing the player characters to stand on them as platforms until they disappear into the fog. Their appearance and manner are similar to those of [[Dolphin]]s. Despite being Mantas, they lack the usual pair of cephalic fins around their mouths, and instead resemble {{wp|Myliobatis|eagle ray}}s with their slightly elongated snouts.
'''Jumbo Rays''' are a type of stingray that first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. These rays are green in color and wear a pair of water goggles. They have the ability to leap and fly through the sky, so [[Mario]] and company can stand on them as platforms until they disappear into the fog. Their appearance and manner of aiding the characters to pass some obstacles are similar to those of [[Dolphin]]s.

Jumbo Rays appear in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. They are encountered in [[World 5-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 5-5]] only. The player characters have to use the Jumbo Rays to traverse the level. Jumbo Rays make a whistling noise when the player jumps on them, similarly to if the player jumps on a [[Para-Beetle]]. However, the Jumbo Rays' sound does not go up the music scale as the Para-Beetle does. Jumbo Rays are not enemies and cannot hurt Mario.
