Template:Species-infobox Kumos[1][2] are hopping spider enemies found in Easton Kingdom in Super Mario Land. They are found in World 3-2 and World 3-3. In appearance, Kumos look much like generic tarantulas that are about the size of Mario. One Kumo posed as Princess Daisy, which Mario discovered after defeating Hiyoihoi.
Kumo (「クモ」) is the Japanese word for "spider"; however, the species is not, in fact, known as "Kumo" in Japan. It is actually the only species for which the English name was not the same as or similar to the Japanese name in the original version of Super Mario Land, although some other species were renamed in the English Virtual Console version.
Kumos attack in the exact same pattern as a Fly, hopping towards Mario. Like Fly, some of them drop downward from midair when spawned. A jump or two Superballs can easily defeat it, rewarding Mario with 400 points.
A Kumo also makes a small appearance in the Nintendo Adventure Book Pipe Down!, although only a picture of it appears.
