A Boney Beetle without the spikes.

A Boney Beetle is the skeleton version of a Buzzy Beetle in Super Mario World. They walk around, stop, then stick out spikes. They also are immune to fire balls,so time your jump good. They are also later seen in Paper Mario, but more like a grey Spiny with yellow spikes, making people confused if its a dead Buzzy Beetle, Dead Spiny, or just a differnt type of enemy.

They're defeated basically the same way as Dry Bones, but harder, so whack them with the hammer often when fighting them.

Tattle: It's a Bony Beetle. They're bony Buzzy Beetles. ...Hence the name. It's tough to damage 'em. When their spikes are out, their attack power is 5. When they retract their spikes, take the opportunity to flip 'em over. After that, beating 'em will be a breeze.
