Phazon Grub

Phazon Grubs are odd lifeforms born from Liquid Phazon, found exclusively in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Their bodies carry an infectious strain of Phazon and can transmit it through a bite. This bite causes a high level of Phazon corruption to form in the bodies of their victims, causing them to suffer from either Phazon Fever or Terminal Corruption in a matter of seconds.
Phazon Grubs can latch onto Samus and drain her energy, though engaging Morph Ball or Hypermode will shake them loose. She must fire out excessive energy during Hypermode if a Phazon Overload is triggered in her system through a bite. Their fragile outer bodies are no match from virtually any weapon in Samus's arsenal.
Their behavior and body shape are nearly identical to the Quadtroids from Metroid Prime Hunters.

==Development Data==
Internally, Phazon Grubs are named as a PhazonLeech. As their physiology bear a slight resemblance to the creature known as Phazon Leech, it is possible there may be a connection between the two species.
==Trivia==
*The grubs are suggested to be pests, as seen in the Scrapworks where a Zapper turret is seen exterminating them when not attacking Samus.
*Despite their small size, they are unable to cross through an opened Doorway. When jumping onto a door's boundary, a Phazon Grub will simply bounce off of it. Similar to a Metroid from previous Prime titles, if a Phazon Grub crosses a door's boundaries, it will instantly explode. This can be easily seen if one latches onto Samus while she stands in between a doorway's boundaries.
*If left alone for long enough, a Phazon Grub may explode, suggesting these creature's life spans are relatively low. This can easily be seen if Samus stands behind an opened Door.
