'''''Twilit Arachnid:'' Armogohma''' is the [[boss]] of the [[Temple of Time (Dungeon)]], ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess's]]'' sixth dungeon. Armogohma is also slightly similar to its ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' counterpart [[Gohma|Queen Gohma]] at first. In this version, Gohma gives the appearance of a frighteningly huge hunter spider. Her name is a [[Wikipedia:Portmanteau|portmanteau]] of "Armos" (as in [[Armos|Armos Statue]]), and Gohma. While her first form can be tricky, her second form is widely considered to be one of the easiest boss fights in the entire game.

Armogohma appears to wear some kind of armor on her main body around her eye. This assumption gains strength after the first form of Armogohma is defeated, revealing the "eye" to be a small, independent creature. In addition, the outer shell has a stone-like texture, as well as numerous "engravings" all over it, similar to the other statues throughout the [[Temple of Time]]. It is quite possible that the armored outer shell is simply controlled by the eye, and is somehow related to the [[Armos]] or [[Beamos]], given the name of the creature and the similarity of the laser beam attack to the [[Beamos]]. This version of Gohma is hairy and has eight legs, heavily resembling a huntsman spider or tarantula.

*The song that plays during Armogohma's second boss phase is slightly similar to the fight against [[Majora's Incarnation]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''.

*Armogohma is the only boss whose [[Critical Point]] does not involve Link slashing away at the boss' with his sword. The fanfare familiar to every previous Critical Point plays as Armogohma lands before the anthropomorphic statues, ready to be pummeled at the shot of the Dominion Rod.

*At E3 2011, there was a [[The Legend of Zelda Wii U Tech Demo|interactive demo]] of Nintedo's newest console and successor to the Wii, the Wii U, where Link fights against an Armogohma in a HD enviornment very reminiscent of the [[Temple of Time]].
