'''Lanmolas''' are giant subterranean centipede-like monsters. They are quite agile and are commonly shown living under sand. They appear primarily in early games, and many of their traits have since gone to their smaller relative, [[Moldorm (The Legend of Zelda)|Moldorm]].

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past]]'', three Lanmolas, alternatively called '''Sand Worms''',<ref>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Super NES'' Player's Guide. Page 83.</ref> appear as the boss of the [[Desert Palace]], and leap from under the sand to attack. Whenever they come up from the ground, a rock is shot in each of the four diagonal directions outward. They must be repeatedly attacked in the head to defeat, but each take a very large amount of hits. They later appear again in [[Ganon's Tower]], where they are assisted by a [[Medusa]]. Moldorms from the first game (here called Swamolas) take a similar role in the [[Swamp of Evil]] in the dark world, but are much shorter.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'', a Lanmola, alternatively called a '''Desert Lanmola''',<ref>M. Arakawa. ''The Legend of Zelda - Link's Awakening'' Player's Guide. Page 102.</ref> appears as a mini-boss in [[Yarna Desert]], acting like the three in the previous game. However, the sand is [[quicksand]], and has a hole in the middle. If Link falls into this hole before the battle is over, he will have to start over. Once the battle is over, the [[Angler Key]] will drop into the hole.

The basic form of the [[Shadow (The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening)|Shadow]]s is also referred to as "Lanmola" in the Player's Guide. While it acts similar to the ones from the first game, it is less restricted in direction and has no further connection.

===''The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past'' (comic)===
In the [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (comic)|comic adaptation]] of ''The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past'' by [[Shotaro Ishinomori]], a single Lanmola appears from a sinkhole at the Desert Ruin, appearing from the end of Chapter 3 to the beginning of Chapter 4. It is depicted as a grayish purple and with a single large eye. It at first confounds Link with its movements, though once he manages to get the [[Pendants of Virtue#Pendant of Power|Pendant of Power]] from a nearby scorpion-shaped statue, he manages to damage it and it burrows back underground. In Chapter 11, the Lanmola, along with the [[Moldorm (boss)|Moldorm]] and [[Agahnim]], appears as a ghostly apparition in [[Ganon's Tower|Ganon's Castle]], but [[Roam]] defeats it with an [[arrow]].

===''Zelda's Adventure''===
In ''[[Zelda's Adventure]]'', Lanmolas{{ref needed}} appear in the [[Great Dry Canyon]], a part of the [[Seacoast Plain]] near the [[Swamp of Vendoss]], and in the quarry near the [[Shrine of Strength]]. They are purple, have large pincers, and have four segments behind their heads that always stick out straight behind them. Like most enemies in the game, they simply wander around aimlessly.
