The '''Blastcap''' is a creature native to [[Tallon IV]]. Blastcaps are weeds that often grow in small clusters and will rattle in warning when anything approaches. The fungal cap, which is filled with toxins, will detonate if [[Samus Aran|Samus]] comes in contact with it, or if she fires upon it repeatedly. The resulting explosion and venomous fumes will cause damage. Even the flesh of the weed itself is poisonous, keeping it from being eaten by indigenous lifeforms.

Blastcaps are also found on [[Alinos]] and [[Arcterra]]. The logbook entry states that they are native to Tallon IV, implying that someone had brought them to the Alimbic System. The reason for this transportation is unknown.
