Horun is a character who resembles an ammonite with bird wings and rabbit ears. He only appears in Densetsu no Starfy and Densetsu no Starfy 2.
In Densetsu no Starfy
In Densetsu no Starfy, Horun is found in Undersea Temple. Horun is attacked by Doppel, then he mistakes Starfy for Doppel and tries to attack him. Once he realizes who he really is, he helps him and Moe find Pufftop. Horun reveals that Pufftop was once part of Undersea Temple.
In Densetsu no Starfy 2
In Densetsu no Starfy 2, Horun is found in Area 4 of Yo-Ho Mountains. Moe asks Horun where the 'Yellow Puchi Ogura' is (Puchi Ogura #7) and Horun replies that he saw someone in the clouds just below Pufftop (Yo-Ho Mountains Area 5). He tells Starfy how to get past the Demeka.
Horun is later found in Area 5 with Starfy, Moe and Puchi Ogura #7. Puchi Ogura #7 throws a bomb that makes a hole in the ground, separating Starfy and Moe from Horun. Horun tells them that he is waiting later on. Starfy and Moe catch up with Horun at the boss door after entering several rooms and dodging Puchi Ogura #7's bombs.

Trivia
Horun's design is likely based on early 19th century reconstructions of ammonites. They were depicted as having dorsal tentacles resembling rabbit ears, which they used as sails to travel across the ocean surface. These reconstructions were based on the widely believed behavior of argonauts, extant animals that visually resemble ammonites. In truth, argonauts use their dorsal tentacles to create their shell-like egg cases, and ammonites likely never had the feature in the first place.
