Plated Parasites (called "Armored Parasitic larva" in the beta demo) are distant cousins to the Parasite. They are encased in protective armor, allowing them to withstand extremely high temperatures; they are possibly thermophilic, as they only seem to be seen in hot locations. Two powerful hooks protrude from their worm-like bodies. They are known for their amazing resilience and determination. Plated Parasites are only vulnerable to concussive attacks, causing them to have very few predators. These creatures have a similar shade of hide to the Parasite Queen, indicating a relationship between the two species.

- The arrival of Phazon on Tallon IV had a considerable effect on the planet's environment overall. The Tallon Parasites were one of the few native species that could cope with the corruption, as shown by the extensive experiments of the Space Pirates. Plated Parasites were a result of the mutations caused by the Phazon on Tallon.

| - The arrival of Phazon on Tallon IV had a considerable effect on the planet's environment overall. The Tallon Parasites were one of the few native species that could cope with the corruption, as shown by the extensive experiments of the Space Pirates. Plated Parasites were a result of the mutations caused by the Phazon on Tallon. The Plated Parasite gained its natural metal armor from Phazon Mutation. The armor is tough enough to shrug off nearly every kind of attack made on it, with the notable exception of Morph Ball Bombs. For some reason, they are often found crawling around Spider Ball Magnetic Rails.

Samus encounters Plated Parasites in the Chozo Ruins Furnace and Magmoor Caverns Geothermal Core on Tallon IV. They usually can be found roaming about on walls made from Spider Ball Tracks. Samus can easily destroy them by placing a Bomb near them. One or two Bombs will kill them.
