==Morty Moles and Mega Moles being the same==
Back when ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' first released, fans mistaken the [[Morty Mole]]s who appear in that game as [[Mega Mole]]s due to the both of them being enlarged [[Monty Mole]]s. However, Morty Moles have a different way of being defeated and extremely different designs to that of Mega Mole and have completely different designs and different names in most languages. However, Morty Moles seem to have been based on Mega Moles during development, as their filename is the Japanese name for Mega Mole, being "Indy."
 
==Para-Beetles and Parabuzzies being the same==
On the Super Mario Wiki (since late 2018), it is stated that [[Para-Beetle]]s and [[Parabuzzy|Parabuzzies]] are the same exact creatures just with a different name (with “Parabuzzy” apparently being their name from the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series). This is false however as both species have drastically different looks as well. Para-Beetles are leg-less and their heads are tucked in their sturdy shells for the most part while Parabuzzies have legs and their heads stick out of their shells (almost resembling a regular [[Buzzy Beetle]] with wings). Additionally, Para-Beetles are invincible in most games they appear in while Parabuzzies can typically be beaten with stomps and other attacks and power-ups such as the [[Starman]]. Also, in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', in the [[Rougeport Sewers]], there is a ruined fountain with two statues of Para-Beetles attached to it and these Para-Beetles possess their ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' appearance looking rather different to the Parabuzzies which also appear in the game.
 
==Puffer Fish enemy from ''Super Mario Galaxy''==
On the Super Mario Wiki, it is stated that the [[Puffer Fish]] enemy appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' is actually a [[Spiny Cheep-Cheep]], this is false as the two enemies barely look alike, not to mention their behaviors are very different. Spiny Cheep-Cheeps usually home in on the plumbers and attempt to hit them upon sight (similar to a [[Rip Van Fish]]) while Puffer Fish attempt to charge at them before self destructing. Previously, it was mistaken for a [[Porcupuffer]] (another Puffer Fish found throughout the series). The official guide by Prima Games for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' also made this mistake, however, the official guide by Prima Games for ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' as well as Nintendo Power simply refer to it as a Puffer Fish confirming it to be a separate enemy.
