Moldorm (The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past)

Moldorms, sometimes known as Mini-Moldorms to distinguish from the boss, are recurring enemies first found in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. They are big-headed caterpillar-like creatures that usually scurry around erratically.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
They are beige and appear in underground caves throughout the game.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
They are mostly black and appear in dungeons and caves throughout the game. In Link's Awakening DX, they have green details. The Tail Cave is themed after them.

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Ages
They appear throughout both games. In Seasons, the remains of one called the Black Beast can be found on an island, and resurrected with a Mystery Seed. Despite having miniboss music, it functions as a normal Moldorm, and gives the X-Shaped Jewel when beaten.

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords
They can be randomly-generated and are black with a pair of red eyes, a pair of golden pincers, several golden legs, and a golden hook at the end of the tail.

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures
They appear in the desert and resemble the Moldorm boss in A Link to the Past, but much smaller. They are still larger than the enemy Moldorms in the same game, however. Like the boss, they have a weak tail end.

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
They appear as they do in Four Swords, albeit with a single green eye and without the various golden protrusions.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
They are teal with pink weak tail ends and resemble centipedes. They are also larger and move much slower.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
They appear as they do in A Link to the Past, but are now either orange or purple depending on location. Both colors have a green fuzzy rim along their undersides.
