rinculus (First Splinter)
From Trekipedia
The rinculus, which lived along the desert sands of Grevven II, a hellish world within the Breen Confederacy, had a dozen shining, jet-black eyes, a pale, segmented body and long fangs flowing with neurotoxins. Though low to the ground, the beast could rear up on its two pairs of hind limbs, bringing it to a greater height than most Breen. Its venom did not kill its prey, but immobilized it, so that the rinculus could then puncture its flesh and devour its internal organs.[1]
