Ashwing Helamite
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Ashwing Helamites are flying macro-insects that are found in Necromunda's Ash Wastes. They are the smaller, less docile relatives of Dustback Helamites.[1]

Description
Like the Dustback, the Ashwings are used against the enemies of the Ash Waste Nomads and also act as guards for the Nomads' claims and camps. When unleashed by their handlers, through the use of a thrown device called a Ashwing Lure, the Ashwings will swarm the Nomads' foes and attack with their toxic mandibles. Their bites pack a deadly punch and no amount of determent will ward the Ashwings away from their targets.[1]
