The Parasite Queen is the first boss of Metroid Prime, found in the Reactor Core of Frigate Orpheon. It is a Parasite mutated through Space Pirate experimentation. When Samus Aran enters the Reactor Core, the Parasite Queen appears inside a blue, seemingly impenetrable barrier. This Parasite Queen is the only living Parasite Queen seen by Samus.
Boss
The Parasite Queen boss battle, like many early battles, is a relatively easy, one-stage battle. To defeat the Parasite Queen, Samus must shoot the Power Beam or Missiles at it while an open section of its shield is revealed.
Specimens
The Parasite Queen is not one of a kind. It is one of three known specimens, all found on Frigate Orpheon. The other two, however, are dead. Parasite Queens come about as the result of unknown methods of mutating a Parasite. Space Pirates most likely mutated Parasites through Phazon radiation.

This Parasite Queen lived in a nuclear reactor and fired destructive beams at Samus from its mouth. The barrier that spun around the queen reflected its and Samus's attacks." —Trophy Gallery (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)
