'''Mandibugs''' are [[List of enemies|enemies]] found in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are large {{wp|stag beetle}}-like insects that sport snapping mandibles that they use to attack and broad purple bodies. Their dorsal sides display a [[Ground Pound]] sign, indicating that the enemies can be defeated in this way. Their name is a portmanteau of "mandible," describing their powerful mouthparts, and "bug."

==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
[[File:Mandibug chase SMG.png|thumb|left|A Mandibug chases after Mario.]]
In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Mandibugs infested the [[Honeyhive Galaxy]] and are led by [[Bugaboom]]. They are apparently unfriendly neighbors of the [[Honeybee]]s, and they take over the Bees' observation tower in the mission [[Trouble on the Tower]].  They are initially stationary, but they attack [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] by charging and attempting to hurt him with their mandibles. Not far from their initial positions, they then stop and retreat. One can be defeated by executing a Ground Pound on its back, causing it to drop three [[Star Bit]]s. If simply stood on, Mandibugs will shake off the player after a few moments, leaving them briefly immobilized. Along with the Honeyhive Galaxy, Mandibugs appear in a handful of other locations, including in the [[Honeyclimb Galaxy]] and on [[Airship]]s.

A [[Mandibug Stack]] appears when the player rides the windmill to the top of the tower in the Honeyhive Galaxy. It gives up a [[Power Star]] when defeated.

===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===

Mandibugs later appear in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', where they appear in the [[Puzzle Plank Galaxy]]. In this game, they drop one [[coin]] upon being defeated. Their leader, Bugaboom, makes a reappearance in the Puzzle Plank Galaxy's [[Bugaboom's Back|secret mission]].

The Mandibug Stack from the first game reappears during the mission [[The Puzzling Picture Block]], with the same role but with a boss theme.
