Appearances
The Legend of Zelda
There are two types of Lanmolas found in The Legend of Zelda. One is red and the other is blue. Both types are only found in the final dungeon of the game, Death Mountain. They were created solely for this dungeon, an element that more recent Zelda installments have failed to do. The can be killed with constant Sword strikes to their head. They appear multiple times throughout the dungeon.
A Link to the Past
Lanmolas in A Link to the Past appear only twice. The first time is as the boss of the Desert Palace, the second dungeon of the game. However, instead of fighting one Lanmola, Link will have to fight three of them at once. They retain their centipede-like appearance here, but also having a more worm-like look as well. The second time is in the final dungeon of the game, Ganon's Tower, where they serve as a Mini-Boss, as do the other two bosses that were defeated by Link as he was searching for each of the three Pendants of Virtue. The Battle against them is nearly identical.
Battle
There will always be three Lanmolas coming out of the ground and shooting rocks in four directions. The only vulnerable part of the Lanmola is the head. Either strike it with your sword a couple times, or you can time when the Lanmola will come out and use an arrow to hit it in the head. Keep hitting them using these method until two of the three are gone. It should take about six hits for each to die. When there is only one Lanmola left, it will shoot rocks in eight directions instead of four. Just dodge the rocks and keep striking it with your sword or arrows and it will be defeated.
