Chrysalis

From StarCraft Wiki

A chrysalis is a type of cocoon used by the zerg to infest terrans. Most experiments yielded poor results.[1]

One "success" came in the form of Infested Kerrigan. She in turn used this method in projects infesting terrans.[1] The process was usually a failure,[1] but it proved to be successful with Ethan Stewart.[2]
