Notable members Suu-chan

Suu are spider enemies of the Easton Kingdom found in the game Super Mario Land. They attack by trying to drop on Mario from the ceiling, then immediately move back upwards slowly upon touching the floor. To defeat them, Mario must avoid getting hit on the Suu's descent, then jump or shoot two Superballs at the spider to earn 400 points. Suu only appear in World 3-2 of the Easton Kingdom. Bigbees from Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins acts like a stronger version of Suu. Additionally, a recurring spider enemy named Scuttlebug later uses string and shares a yellow-striped pattern on its abdomen.

In the Super Mario Kodansha manga, Suu appear with Kumos in the Easton Kingdom, being entrusted more than the incompetent moai by Tatanga, much to Hiyoihoi's envy. One of the Suu, Suu-chan, is able to change her form from spider to human and, in the latter form, pretends to help Mario, only to lure him into traps, the first one of which is a Suu-infested cave, that Mario quickly takes care off. The second trap results more efficient, but the Tokotoko and Batadon ruins it and are accidentally killed with Suu-chan's venom, that melts them right away. Hiyoihoi, furious both for the replacement and the death of his soldiers, grabs a Bullet Biff-Gatling gun and shoots it at everyone, accidentally killing the Kumos that were about to jump at Mario, who saves Suu-chan in retaliation. The two then join forces and defeat Hiyoihoi, making him and his base disappear, and with them, all the enemis on it, including Suu-chan.

In Super Mario-kun, a singular Suu appears in the last chapter of volume 3 alongside other Super Mario Land enemies. It is seen only dangling on the ceiling and nothing more.
