Spanglers[1] are enemies in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. They are dark gray-striped alien spiders with maroon heads and are closely related to the fuzzy, brown-colored Spoings, both of which resemble the recurring Scuttlebug enemy. Spanglers hang from awnings by a thread of silk attached to a bright pink spinneret on their abdomens.
