| '''Stingbies''' are somewhat recurring [[bee]] enemies introduced in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. In the [[Super Mario (series)|mainline games]], Stingbies idly hover above the ground until a player character enters their proximity, at which point they target them with the damaging {{wp|stinger}} on their face. They fly slowly, but are persistent.
| |
|
| |
|
| The enemies are roughly the same size as [[Goomba]]s and consist of one striped body segment covered in hair. They have a single pair of black cartoonish legs. The stinger on their face incidentally makes them reminiscent of {{wp|bee fly|bee flies}}, which have a long proboscis. Their English name is a portmanteau of "sting" and "bee," and is pronounced "sting-bee."<ref>When choosing the correct answer on the second question of a ''Super Mario 3D World''-themed [[Minor threats of the Mushroom Kingdom trivia quiz|skill quiz]] on [[Play Nintendo]], a message is displayed saying "''Yep. Sting + Bee = Stingby.''"</ref>
| | '''Stingbies''' are enemies appearing in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. They're small bee with large eyes and their stinger is located on their face. |

| ====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
| |
| [[File:Stingby.png|frame|left]]
| |
| Stingbies make their debut in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', and are first encountered in [[World 2-4 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 2-4]]. They are common in levels taking place in the sky or over large pits. Stingbies fly at a certain height and cannot move up or down; rather, they patrol the area to find Mario or Luigi. When a Stingby spots [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]], they angrily start to slowly chase after them. These enemies can be easily defeated by any form of attack.

| ====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
| |
| [[File:StingbySM3DW.jpg|thumb|Stingbies in ''Super Mario 3D World'']]
| |
| Stingbies are enemies in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|its port]]. They behave the same as they do in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. Stingbies first appear in [[World 1 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 1]] in the level [[Switch Scramble Circus]] and later appear in [[Conkdor Canyon]] from [[World 2 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 2]], [[Switchboard Falls]] in [[World 3 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 3]], [[Piranha Creeper Creek]] in [[World 4 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 4]], [[Deep Jungle Drift]] in [[World 6 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 6]], and [[Rolling Ride Run]] and [[Honeycomb Starway]] in [[World Star (Super Mario 3D World)|World Star]]. Cat variants appear in [[Lake Lapcat]].
| |
|
| |
| ====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
| |
| While Stingbies themselves do not appear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', mosquito-like variants known as [[Urban Stingby|Urban Stingbies]] do. They can be found in the [[Metro Kingdom]] during the night. When an Urban Stingby sees Mario, it charges at him, disappearing if it hits a wall.
| |
|
| |
| ====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
| |
| Stingbies are enemies in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They can placed in stages in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style only. [[Mega Stingby|Mega Stingbies]] are generated by giving a Stingby a Super Mushroom. Stingbies chase players who are nearby, but can only move horizontally.
| |
|
| |
| ===''Mario Kart 7''===
| |
| [[File:Honey House.png|thumb|Two Stingbies in ''Mario Kart 7'']]
| |
| Stingbies make another appearance in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. They serve as enemies in the battle course, [[Honeybee Hive]]. They have a darker color than those in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. They travel in lines through the stage and spin out any fast-moving karts they touch.
| |
| {{br|left}}
| |
|
| |
| ===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
| |
| Stingbies return with the inclusion of [[Conkdor Canyon]] from ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' as a bonus stage in the [[Wii U]] version of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]''. Here, they behave just as they did in their previous ''Super Mario'' 3D platform game appearances, chasing the protagonist when they spot him. [[Captain Toad]] can defeat a Stingby with an airborne stomp. These enemies do not return in the [[Nintendo Switch]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] versions since the level is not included in them.
| |
|
| |
| ===''Minecraft''===
| |
| In the Super Mario Mash-up of ''[[Minecraft]]'', Bees are replaced by Stingbies.

| |
| Stingbies appear in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as obtainable assistants and are a clear reward bonus for completing the first area of [[World 14 (Dr. Mario World)|World 14]] and [[World 27]]. They also appear in the background of [[World 12 (Dr. Mario World)|World 12]] when an area has been cleared. In stage mode, their effect can only be used in timed stages, as it grants a chance that the timer is increased by 8 seconds, where the chance of activation is 30% at the first level and 80% at the maximum level (8% and 40% respectively prior to version 2.3.0). In versus mode, their effect is to grant a chance to automatically send two rows of viruses to the opponent's field when the stage shrinks to eight rows from the grey [[Empty Block]]s, where it is a 10% chance at the first level and 30% chance at the maximum level.

| ===''Paper Mario: The Origami King''===
| |
| Stingbies make their ''Paper Mario'' debut in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', where origami variants of them serve as enemies in [[Spring of Jungle Mist]]. Unlike their previous appearances, they can now move up and down, without being held back by a certain height.
| |
|
| |
| ===''Super Mario Party Jamboree''===
| |
| A [[Mega Stingby]] appears in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' as a fightable mini-boss in the [[Mega Wiggler's Tree Party]] board. Its boss [[minigame]] is quite similar to that of [[Mega Goomba's Ladder Leap]] from ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' as the players must [[jump]] up the platforms to stomp on its head, scoring a [[point]] in the process.<ref>https://youtu.be/Din4nyglnjU?si=-YYIvBk5rdJd3gxh</ref> Regular Stingbies can also appear in the minigame [[Camera-Ready]], where they can be photographed chasing other non-playable characters, and [[Which Door Has More?]], where they are one of the species that can appear in the rooms.
