Venom Weed is a plant species found in Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. It is related to normal Tangle Weed, with the exception of their varying coloration (scarlet in Prime, and purple in Echoes) and poisonous nature. Whereas Tangle Weed is merely an inconvenience, Venom Weed is truly dangerous, depleting Samus' health if she wanders into it. It is found in the Chozo Ruins and Tallon Overworld in Metroid Prime and Torvus Bog, Dark Torvus, and Sky Temple Grounds in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

- Venom Weed is a poisonous floral organism that will retract into the ground if threatened. Related to the more common Tangle Weed, they adapted to thrive in the habitats of large organisms, where they will lure their prey with brightly colored leaves before attacking with tiny barbs that deliver a powerful toxin. The Venom Weed will rapidly decompose anything that succumbs in their midst. Its true homeworld is still in question, due to its being found on two separate planets - Tallon IV and Aether.

| - Venom Weed is a plant species found in Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. It is related to normal Tangle Weed, with the exception of their varying coloration (scarlet in Prime, and purple in Echoes) and poisonous nature. Whereas Tangle Weed is merely an inconvenience, Venom Weed is truly dangerous, depleting Samus' health if she wanders into it. It is found in the Chozo Ruins and Tallon Overworld in Metroid Prime and Torvus Bog, Dark Torvus, and Sky Temple Grounds in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. In Prime, the Venom Weed seems to have been a result of the Flaahgra's poison infiltrating the water sytems of the Ruins (and subsequently, Phazon), causing the otherwise-benign Tangle Weed to become corrupted by the toxins. In Echoes, the Venom Weed is found living on land and underwater, while a mutant strain was found in Dark Aether, seemingly having somehow reached and adapted to the dark planet's corrosive atmosphere; scanning these two Venom Weed variants from Echoes will not download them into Samus' Logbook. As with Tangle Weed, shooting at or near it will briefly make it retract into the ground. They emit a "sighing" sound when they retract. The Tangle Weed from Phaaze possesses the ability to damage Samus, identically to all Venom Weed strains.

Venom Weed appears to evolve when Tangle Weed encounters poison to interact with, as Tallon IV Venom Weed seems to have evolved with the onset of Flaahgra, while Aetherian Venom Weed more likely became toxic due to the venomous waters of Dark Aether in which they have been found. As with Tangle Weed, shooting at or near one will temporarily make it retract into the ground to protect itself. They emit a "sighing" sound when they retract.
