The Glowing spidervine is a species of vine-like flora indigenous to Tallon IV. It is carnivorous, and uses bioluminescent light to attract its insect prey. It is not dangerous to larger organisms, however.
It has so far only been found in Metroid Prime.

Trivia
- Concept art names a green and yellow species of mold called "spider mold". It is not known to correspond to anything in-game, but may bear a relation to the Glowing spidervine.
