Preying Mantas
Preying Mantas from Yoshi's New Island
Yoshi's New Island in-game model
First appearance Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (1995)
Latest appearance Yoshi's New Island (2014)
Comparable

A Preying Mantas[1] is a jellyfish found underwater in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, its Game Boy Advance version, and Yoshi's New Island. Its name is a portmanteau of praying mantis, a kind of insect, and manta ray, a kind of stingray. Preying Mantas move up and down in a small area, and therefore do not pose much of a threat to the Yoshis. The Yoshis can simply defeat them by shooting a torpedo at them in their Submarine forms.
