Large insectoid dungeon hazards: carrion crawler and tunnel worm. The well-known carrion crawler is 9' feet long and attacks with 8 paralyzing tentacles. The tunnel worm is a 30' long centipede that lunges out of dungeon walls to grab prey, chewing through armor in several rounds. It lays its eggs on corpses stashed in its burrows. (AD&D Monster Cards Set 3, TSR, 1982) The carrion crawler appears to be signed with Laura Roslof's initials.

Granted there probably is snikting in D&D, but not at Logan's level.

So we fought carrion crawlers in my friend's Dungeons and Dragons session. When we fought them, they were described as borrowing in the ground like Tremor's graboids and hanging out where dead bodies were to eat them. Or I gave myself that impression from how the DM said how they get around and moved (digging underground).
When I went to go draw one, I looked up the reference but...wasn't a fan of the older one or the newer on. They actually look cool and make sense for the actual monster description - they are above ground, hang out where dead bodies are and eat them.
So I decided to make my own underground sub species. Partially inspired by graboids and I looked up close up images of maggot's faces because they eat flesh (not recommended to search though). I made two sketches of some of the different pictures and then made one that was more subterranean.

Don't let the carrion crawler eat the halfling until he's done opening the chests (Emmanuel Bautista, from Wizard's Aide, 1977, a self-published collection of rules, flavor descriptions, and random tables by Matt Whalley "designed to supplement many of the fantasy role playing games that are being played around the world," typical of many third-party efforts to expand OD&D prior to the publication of AD&D)
