The Ram War Wasp is a variety of War Wasp found on Tallon IV.

Morphology[edit | edit source]

Ram War Wasps are the only species on Tallon IV to have evolved a hive mind which allows them to think as one, enabling them to be dangerous predators capable of taking down larger organisms. Ram War Wasps attack by circling their prey in an attempt to confuse them, then ramming the target.

Samus only encounters this variety in the Hive Totem of Chozo Ruins while battling the Hive Mecha, which trains and houses them.[1]
