Flopters in The Bullet Bill Express of Super Mario 3D World
Two Flopters

Flopters[1] are bug-like enemies that appear in Super Mario 3D World. They also reappear in its Nintendo Switch port Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. They have a bee-like body and four wings, and attack by ramming into the player. Their name is a combination of the words "flower" and "copter", describing their appearance and behavior, respectively. Flopters can be defeated by any attack and are usually found in groups. When undisturbed, they normally fly at a high altitude. Flopters make their first appearance in the level The Bullet Bill Express. Flopters have wings that spin around rapidly much like Twirlips and Choppahs.

They also appear in Lake Lapcat in Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury in cat form. They gain catlike features, such as fur, paws, and ears, but otherwise have the same behavior as their normal counterparts.
