Aquis

From Sonic Retro

Aquis (シードラ / Seadra) is an enemy from Sonic 2, found in Oil Ocean Zone, is a flying seahorse that moves swiftly and quickly fires quick black bullets at you. They are a pain to get around, so to try to hit them with precision.

In both the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Nick Arcade Prototype and the Sonic 2 Beta, code and sprites exist for another type of Aquis which behave erratically and shoot oil balls at Sonic when approached.
