;Venomspitter
*'''Carnifex Arbylis''', a sub-classification of extreme Carnifex variants that meld both pairs of upper limbs into complex ranged weapon symbiotes. Most common of these is the "Venomspitter" Carnifex, a beast capable of launching hyper-velocity crystalline shards of pure poison that can knock out a tank or easily kill a warrior in [[power armour]]. Carnifex Arbylis generally have improved ocular acuity and excellent depth perception from multiple eyes, although specimens employing a kind of stereoscopic echo-location have also been found on night worlds.{{Fn|4b}}

;Bile-beasts
*Carnifex Bilius, commonly called “Bile-beasts,” have been converted into walking biological weapons factories. Their carapaces are pitted with bubbling spore cysts and their guts writhe with lethal pathogens and molecular acids that gout from dorsal vents. The combined attack of necrotizing spores and acids used by these beasts will fatally overwhelm most bio-chem defences in moments; more resistant enemies are crushed by the creatures’ crab-like claws and digested by its drooling, acidic maw."{{Fn|4b}}
;Death Beetle
*This beast was designed so that it took advantage of nearly every biomorph.{{Fn|8}}
;Razorfex*'''Razorfex'''{{Fn|98}}
;Scuttle-Basher
*This life form is absolutely single minded in its purpose to destroy each and every piece of armour on the battlefield.{{Fn|8}}
;Strangle Seeder{{Fn|8}}
;Terrorbore
*This Carnifex was built to slaughter even the toughest infantry in wholesale quantities. They are typically equipped with 2 twin Devourers, Spinebanks, and enhanced senses.{{Fn|8}}
;Toxic-Lasher{{Fn|8}}
;Tusked Shrieker
*Though fully capable of ripping through vehicles (or anything else for that matter), this bio-construct will often lumber straight for Elite infantry squads {{Fn|8}}
