An unknown type of Biomorph[1]

A Biomorph is an evolutionary adaptation of the Tyranid species developed by the Hive Mind to create the perfect killing beasts needed to defeat its current enemy. Biomorphs are symbiotic creatures organically attached to more complex Tyranid organisms, serving as their organisms primary means of attack.[1]

Trivia

The Citadel Journal 37 included 3rd Edition rules for the rare biomorphs of Hive Fleet Harbinger, several of which would later become published biomorphs including Acid Spray, Regeneration, and by different names some which could be considered precursors to the Heavy Venom Cannon, Stinger Salvo, and the Fleshborer Hive.[9]
