A less commonly used technical term used for any alien entity.

A xenomorph is a member of the fictional extraterrestrial species that is the primary antagonist of the Alien film series and its subsidiary literature and video games. The name is derived from the Greek word for "alien form", and was used by a character in the film Aliens as a euphemism to indicate any nonterrestrial lifeform. Because the films did not give a specific name, this was adopted by fans as a taxonomic classification for the Alien series' titular monsters.

A xenomorph (also: allotriomorph) is a mineral that did not develop its otherwise typical external crystal form because of late crystallization between earlier formed crystals. Xenomorphs are typical of matrix minerals in rapidly crystallizing volcanic lavas and shallow igneous intrusions. It is also typical of the interstitial or cemmenting minerals formed during the diagenesis of sedimentary rocks.

The Xenomorphs in the Metroid Prime Hunters demo (entitled First Hunt) are flying creatures exhibiting no forms of attack or defense mechanisms. Instead, these creatures wander around aimlessly. However, Xenomorphs are capable of hurting the player's character if touched.
