'''Stone circles'''<ref>{{cite|author=Black, Fletcher|title=''Super Mario Galaxy: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|format=Collector's Edition|location=Roseville|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|language=en-us|date=November 9, 2007|page=63|isbn=978-0-7615-5713-5}}</ref> are clusters of interactable objects in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. A stone circle consists of eight small rocks arranged into a ring on the ground. [[Spin]]ning within the ring transforms each of the rocks into a collectible [[Star Bit]]. There are iterations of circles themed to the [[level]]'s environment. In beach [[galaxy|galaxies]], such as the [[Beach Bowl Galaxy]] and [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]], the player can find '''shell circles'''<ref>{{cite|author=Black|title=''Super Mario Galaxy: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|format=Collector's Edition|page=229}}</ref> (or '''shell rings''').<ref>{{cite|author=Black|title=''Super Mario Galaxy: PRIMA Official Game Guide''|format=Collector's Edition|page=257}}</ref> The cake-shaped planet at the end of [[Sweet Sweet Galaxy]] has a '''strawberry circle'''<ref>''Super Mario Galaxy'' internal filename (<tt>ObjectData/CircleStrawberry.arc</tt>)</ref> on its top. On an [[airship]] in [[Bowser Jr.'s Airship Armada]], a circle is combined with a [[valve]], where spinning it releases Star Bits from the eight vents surrounding it. Only the stone and shell circles appear in both ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games.

There are [[Flower (environmental object)|flowers]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' that are similar in concept.
