Reo

Reo, occasionally written Rio, are small, fly-like creatures that are native to Zebes. They live in the caverns of Brinstar, and will dive at any creature it spots. On the Bottle Ship, they are seen coming out of nests of biomass. Whether this is part of their natural life cycle or a mutation caused by the Galactic Federation is unknown. Also in Other M, the Reo are capable of gripping on to Samus, forcing her to shake them off. The X mimicked Reos on the B.S.L station, they act the same as in previous appearances. They are generally enemies of low threat, but can be dangerous in groups.

NTSC-U: These clawed, fly-like enemies from Metroid show up in Smash Run, too. They float in midair, then fly in a U shape when you get close. They're predictable, which makes them easy to outsmart, but stay on your toes anyway—their attacks can send you flying. One way to beat them is to grab and throw them when they buzz near you.
