Another theory for my growing collection.
In that shot of the 3 worms, i'm reminded of a piece of Chozo Lore:
"The worm grows stronger" - "Only the holder of the 12 can face the worm"
To me, the 'worm' was a metaphore for a growing evil that was underground (orange phazon) that was poisoning the planet. Now in that picture, we'll be fighting an actual worm. They could have no connection what so ever, but it's an interesting note.
In Prime, you would read the Chozo lore talking about the great poison while you walked around the Chozo Ruins... which have been poisoned. But that poison was just from Flaggrah, it poisoned all the water and was killing all the plants as well. But that wasn't the poison the Chozo were talking about. So this worm could be of the same context.
It's definately the larval form of something, but who knows what.
