 Although the term 'Koopa' is a blanket term for the entire species of anthropomorphic turtles in the series, to which creatures such as Lakitu, Hammer Bros. and even Bowser belong, the term is often used to refer colloquially to this particular enemy.

 When defeated, Koopas may flee from or retreat inside their shells, which can then usually be used as weapons.
 Shellcreepers are a different species, according to their trophy in "Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U".
 Koopa shells are a recurring weapon in the series, particularly popularized in the "Mario Kart" series, in which they can be fired as projectiles against other racers.
 Despite making up the bulk of Bowser's army, known as the "Koopa Troop", Koopas as a species are often shown to be peaceful, some even teaming up with Mario.
