==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''====
[[ImageFile:SM64_ScuttleBug.jpg|150px|thumb|left|An early ''Super Mario 64'' Scuttle Bug.]]
They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and later in its remake ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. They act the same as [[Goomba]]s; when in range they charge at [[Mario]], and punching and stepping on their heads defeats them. They live in [[Hazy Maze Cave]] and outside [[Big Boo's Haunt]]. The only difference between Goombas is that they give three Coins instead of just one. But in the remake, their appearance changed drastically, taking the shape of their ''New Super Mario Bros.'' appearance resembling a hybrid between a Spider and a Bee.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[ImageFile:NSMB_ScuttleBug.png|150px|thumb|left|Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs hanging on webs and on the ground.]]
[[File:ScuttleBug.PNG|thumb|right]]
Scuttlebugs reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', hanging down from webs in World 4-1. They will repeatedly move up and down, and can prove to be useful in giving some extra height by jumping off of them. They also appeared in in World 8-4, where they will ceaselessly drop down from the top of the stage in pairs of two. They detach from their webs almost immediately, and will drop onto the ground and give chase.
 
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====

Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs appear in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] game ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. They hang from webs, just like their ''New Super Mario Bros.'' incarnations. However, their appearance have changed; instead of being yellow with three black stripes and having black heads, they are yellow with two purple stripes and heads, as well as having white pincers. They appeared in [[World 3-3 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-3]] and [[World 3|World 3-Cannon]].▼

In the ''[[Mario Party 7]]'' minigame [[Spider Stomp]], Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs appear, along with their probable ruler, a big Scuttle BugScuttlebug. However, they are simply known as "spiders" in the game and can shoot web projectiles. The red machine in [[Hop-O-Matic 4000]] resembles a Scuttle BugScuttlebug.

[[Image:Scuttle bug figure.png|thumb|70px]]
Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs appear also in ''[[Mario Party DS]]''. It appears in only one [[minigame]]: a 2-Vs.-2 minigame named [[Crazy Crosshairs]]. Both teams must hit the Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs with some toy tanks on a spiderweb. This minigame also introduce Gold Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs, giving the team 3 points instead of one if hit. In the same game, the player can win a Scuttle BugScuttlebug Rival Badge and a Scuttle BugScuttlebug Trophy by getting MP Points, and look at them in Gallery Mode.

Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs make their ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' debut in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. In the game, they are referred to as '''Scuttlebugs'''. They are only found in [[World 3]], with their appearance the same as from ''New Super Mario Bros.''. Many walk around on the ground while others are attached to the ceiling using thread-like webs. If Mario battles a Scuttlebug on the ground, the enemy can either slam into Mario or shoot a web at him. If a hanging Scuttlebug is battled, it can only slam into Mario, but with a much higher damage ratio. The Scuttlebugs can also change their position on their strings to avoid hammer and ground attacks, similar to that of [[Pider]]s and [[Arantula]]s from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.
 
Scuttlebugs hold a [[Wiggler Segment]] hostage in [[Rustle Burrow]], an area with most of its inhabitants being Scuttlebugs. There are also Mini Scuttle Bugs that cannot be battled, but will chase Mario if he gets close to them. If a Mini Scuttle Bug touches Mario, he cannot jump very high and will move slowly until the Mini Scuttle Bug is removed. Mini Scuttle Bugs can be defeated by getting hit with a hammer, touched by Invincible Mario, or being jumped on. A [[Big Scuttlebug]] also appears as a mini-boss.▼

==Trivia==
*Scientifically, Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs aren't spiders or arachnids as they have 4 legs. Arachnids usually have 8 legs.
*Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs are shown to act hostile towards other creatures who get near their spaces as shown when they capture [[Kersti]] and a [[Wiggler Segment]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' and aggressively try to attack Mario. This could mean that Scuttle BugsScuttlebugs have a huge distaste for outsiders.
