'''Tamao'''<ref name=manual>''Super Mario Land'' English instruction booklet, page 16.</ref><ref name=GB>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Game Boy'' Player's Guide. Page 5.</ref> is an eyeball-like enemy that protects [[Dragonzamasu]] in [[World 2-3 (Super Mario Land)|World 2-3]] of ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. It bounces diagonally to different parts of the screen, damaging [[Mario]] if it touches his [[Marine Pop]]. Tamao is completely immune to torpedoes shot by the Marine Pop. However, once Dragonzamasu is defeated, Tamao disappears as well.
 
In the [[Super Mario Land (manga)|''Super Mario Land'' manga]], Tamao appears in the battle with Dragonzamasu, hitting the [[Marine Pop]] glass and creating a leak that Mario and [[Mecha Kuribō (character)|Mecha Kuribō]] quickly fix by using the [[Yurarin Boo]] they previously captured. When Tamao later tries to hit them a second time, the Yurarin Boo grabs it, allowing Mario to continue to shoot Dragonzamasu.
 
In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Tamao appears in the last chapter of [[Super Mario-kun Volume 3|volume 3]], still aiding Dragonzamasu by hitting Mario. Mario flashes the two with his shiny bald spot and, while he is occupied with Dragonzamasu, [[Yoshi]] burns Tamao with his fire breath, turning it into a sunny-side-up fried egg, then proceeds to eat it.
