'''Tail Boos''' are [[Boo]]s with [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki tails]] granted by [[Super Leaf|Super Leaves]] that appear in the [[Mario (franchise)|Mario franchise]]. Their tails are white and grey, unlike Tanooki Mario and other Tanooki-tailed enemies, who have brown and beige tails.

==History==
===''Super Mario 3D Land''===
Tail Boos first appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' in the level [[World 4-4 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 4-4]].They follow the player and when the player looks at one to stop it, it will perform a tail whip as it stops. They can only be defeated from invincibility granted from either a [[Super Star]] or a [[Invincibility Leaf]], just like normal Boos. Certain Tail Boos drop either a Super Leaf or a [[Statue Leaf]] upon defeat.

===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''====

Tail Boos reappear as both enemies and usable minions in the ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'' mode of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. Tail Boos are flying troopers, and attack by running into enemies. Their special attack, Spin Cycle, allows them to attack enemies by spinning their tails.
