Suu[1][2] 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 Kumo in the Easton Kingdom. The most notable one, Suu-chan disguises herself as a tribal girl and pretends to help Mario, only to lure him onto a huge web where the other spider enemies try to eat him. After he escapes, Hiyoihoi attempts to kill him with a Gira-shooting gatling gun, and Mario saves her from a stray shot. After this, she decides to help him fight Hiyoihoi, reverting partially to her spider form to throw more Superballs. After Hiyoihoi is defeated, she fades away from existence, leaving behind only the flower she kept in her hair.
