There are over 80 magical creatures in the 2017 edition of the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book, but 45 of these beasts have yet to appear on-screen in either a Fantastic Beasts or Harry Potter film. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them was originally published in 2001, between the release of the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix books. The "textbook" and its companion, Quidditch Through the Ages, benefit the British charity Comic Relief, and also contain some intriguing additional information for Potterheads.

The book is written from the perspective of the character Newt Scamander, and it went on to inspire the film of the same name which debuted in 2017. A new edition of the book, with even more beasts, was published the same year to celebrate the film. The first Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them movie follows Newt, along with No-Maj (American slang for Muggle) Jacob Kowalski, and American witches, Tina and Queenie Goldstein. The rag-tag team is wrangling beasts in New York City after they were accidentally released from Newt's case. The group also encounters dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald, who remains the villain through the sequels: Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald and Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore.

Beasts play an integral part in the film plots, often helping Newt, or sometimes causing chaos. Most of the featured beasts were in the original book, and several appeared in Harry Potter books and films. However, there are still 45 beasts that haven't appeared on-screen but could appear in future Fantastic Beasts films. Here is every fantastic beast yet to appear in the Harry Potter extended franchise.

Ashwinder

Ashwinders are created from the dying embers of magical fires. They only live about an hour, laying valuable eggs and then collapsing into ash. Newt offered a frozen Ashwinder egg to Ron Perlman's Gnarlak in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

Bundimun

Bundimun in Fantastic Beasts illustrated edition

The Bundimun looks like "a patch of greenish fungus with eyes" and is used for potions. They also secrete acidic discharge which is capable of rotting away entire building structures. They have appeared in some Harry Potter video games.

Chimaera

Chimaera in Fantastic Beasts illustrated edition

The Chimaera is a well-known creature from Greek mythology usually depicted as part lion, part goat, and part snake, sometimes with multiple heads. They haven't appeared in Harry Potter or Fantastic Beasts but have been mentioned frequently. They were originally supposed to appear in the first Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them film, but were cut from the finished project.

Chizpurfle

Chizpurfle in Fantastic Beasts illustrated edition

Chizpurfles are crab-like parasites only a twentieth of an inch long. They are attracted to magic and are frequently found in the fur of Crups (below) and Augureys, the latter of which met Jacob in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald in Newt's basement. Chizpurfles are also used in potion-making.

Clabbert

Clabbert in Fantastic Beasts illustrated edition

These creatures look like a cross between a monkey and a frog with mottled green skin, horns, and razor-sharp teeth. It has a pustule on its head that flashes red when it senses danger. Wizards used to keep them for this purpose, which caused non-magical folk to question why their neighbors had their Christmas lights up in the summer.

Crup

Crup in Fantastic Beasts illustrated edition

Maybe the most adorable creature that hasn't appeared onscreen yet, the Crup is a wizard-bred dog that looks like a Jack Russell terrier, except for its forked tail. Unfortunately, wizards are required to remove the Crup's tail so muggles don't see it. Crups are "intensely loyal to wizards and ferocious towards Muggles."

Dugbog

Dugbogs are mentioned a few times in the Harry Potter canon. They look like a piece of dead wood but have sharp teeth that they use to attack humans. An issue of the New York Ghost in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them features the headline "No-Maj Attacked by Dugbog Whilst Hiking In Great Lakes."

Erkling

Harry Potter and Moody

While Crups are adorable, Erklings are horrifying. They are humanoid creatures that like to eat children. Their last known attack was on six-year-old Bruno Schmidt, who killed the Erkling with his father's collapsible cauldron. Barty Crouch Jr. (as Alastor Moody) used Erklings in a Defense Against the Dark Arts exam.

Fairy

Fantastic Beasts: Cases from the Wizarding World fairy

Another famous creature from myth, fairies exist in the Wizarding World but have yet to appear. Newt describes them as "a small and decorative beast of little intelligence." They have appeared in several Harry Potter video games.

Fire Crab

Fantastic Beasts: Cases from the Wizarding World fire crab

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Rubeus Hagrid famously crossbreeds Manticores (which guard the cell of Newt's brother, Theseus Scamander in Fantastic Beast: The Secrets of Dumbledore) and Fire Crabs to create Blast-Ended Skrewts. Unfortunately, the Crabs and the Skrewts haven't made it into the films. Fire Crabs are native to Fiji and have heavily jeweled shells.

Ghoul

Ghoul dressed as Ron Weasley Pottermore

A Ghoul was never technically seen in the Harry Potter books, but Ron Weasley frequently mentioned the one that lived in his family's attic. He disguised this ghoul as himself in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. They're considered harmless nuisances.

Glumbumble

Glumbumbles are bee-like insects. They produce a treacle that induces melancholy in those who eat it but is also used as an antidote to hysteria. They sometimes infect beehives and are disastrous for honey production.

Gnome

Gnome in Fantastic Beasts illustrated edition

Gnomes are a prominent beast in the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets book as the Weasley garden is infested with them. Ron Weasley said to Harry that Muggle garden gnomes look more like Father Christmas than real potato-like gnomes. The best way to get rid of gnomes is by throwing them, which has also appeared in several video games. Jarveys (below) can also be used to get rid of gnomes.

Griffin

Though Griffins are the namesake (not the mascot) of Gryffindor house, they have never appeared as more than statues in the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films. These mythological creatures have the wings and head of an eagle, but the body of a lion. According to Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald's screenplay, Newt does have one in his basement.

Hidebehind

A Demiguise looking scared in Fantastic Beasts

The Hidebehind was added to the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book in 2017. They were mentioned in the Pottermore story about Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and are based on an American cryptid. They were created by the accidental breeding of a Demiguise and a Ghoul. They can turn invisible and dwell in the forest, preying on humans.

Hippocampus

Fantastic Beasts: Cases from the Wizarding World hippocampus

Another hybrid creature from Greek mythology, the Hippocampus is part horse and part fish. Ice sculpture Hippocampi were originally supposed to float above the Yule Ball in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. They were also supposed to appear in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them but were cut from both films.

Hodag

fantastic beasts illustrated edition hodag

The Hodag was also added in the 2017 edition of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. They are horned creatures with glowing red eyes from American folklore. In real life, they were invented by Eugene Shepard to trick people into thinking he had captured a strange animal, but he eventually admitted it was a hoax.

Horklump

fantastic beasts illustrated edition horklumps

Horklumps are animals that look like mushrooms. Their Ministry of Magic classification is one X, meaning they're harmless. Despite this, video games have portrayed them as emitting poisonous gas.

Horned Serpent

Ilvermorny crest from Harry Potter

Horned Serpent is one of the three Ilvermorny houses and had a big impact on the school's founder, Isolt Sayre, but has yet to appear on film. They are intelligent, water-dwelling serpents with jewels on their heads. They were added in the 2017 Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book and have only appeared in the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite game.

Imp

Imps are small tricksters who enjoy playing practical jokes on humans. Like Horklumps, they're relatively harmless. They never appear in Harry Potter books but have appeared in video games.

Jarvey

Fantastic Beasts: Cases from the Wizarding World jarvey

Jarveys resemble ferrets but can talk like humans. Unfortunately, they aren't fun conversationalists. They mostly say short, rude statements in a constant stream of speech. Newt was expelled from Hogwarts because he illegally possessed a Jarvey.

Jobberknoll

fantastic beasts illustrated edition jobberknoll

Jobberknolls look like regular bluebirds but don't make any noise until they die. They then regurgitate every sound they've ever heard. Wizards and witches use Jobberknoll feathers in truth and memory potions.

Knarl

fantastic beasts illustrated edition knarl

Knarls look like hedgehogs, and in fact, there is only one behavioral difference between the two. Newt Scamander explains: "[I]f food is left out in the garden for a hedgehog, it will accept and enjoy the gift; if food is offered to a Knarl, on the other hand, it will assume that the householder is attempting to lure it into a trap and will savage that householder’s garden plants or garden ornaments." They are mentioned in the Harry Potter books but never actually appear.

Lethifold

Patronus Luna Lovegood Harry Potter

The Lethifold is one of the most terrifying beasts in Potter lore. It resembles a black cloak floating along the ground. It attacks humans at night, suffocating and then devouring them fully. The only known way to defeat them is with the famous Harry Potter spell, the Patronus Charm. They haven't made it onto film but could make for an interesting face-off between Newt and a deadly beast.

Lobalug

fantastic beasts illustrated edition lobalug

The Lobalug consists of a rubbery spout and a venom sac which it uses as a weapon. And in fact, Merpeople use them as a weapon. However, this didn't make it into the Harry Potter film scenes featuring Merpeople.

Mackled Malaclaw

fantastic-beasts-mackled-malaclaw

One bite from these gray lobster-like creatures causes a human to be unlucky for one week. Their tails can be used in potions but eating their flesh causes fever and a green rash. They have been mentioned in multiple games, but only appear in Fantastic Beasts: Cases from the Wizarding World.

Moke

Fantastic Beasts illustrated edition Moke

Mokes hide from muggles thanks to their ability to shrink at will. It wouldn't matter much if they were spotted by non-magical people though because they just look like green lizards. Mokeskin is used by wizards to make shrinking bags. Rubeus Hagrid gave Harry a Mokeskin bag for his 17th birthday.

Nogtail

fantastic beasts illustrated edition nogtail

Nogtails resemble pigs with long legs. They sneak onto farms, suckle on real pigs, and curse the land. The only way to deter them is with a pure white dog. Cormac McLaggen's uncle took him Nogtail hunting and Professor Slughorn offered McLaggen a book about hunting Nogtails in the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince book.

Plimpy

fantastic beasts illustrated edition plimpy

The Plimpy looks like a legged puffer fish. They're a pest for Merpeople, who tie their legs together, so they drift away. They tend to nibble on the clothing of swimmers.

Pogrebin

fantastic beasts illustrated edition pogrebin

Pogrebins are a foot tall with a giant gray head that allows them to disguise themselves as rocks. They follow humans, giving them a sense of despair and futility, not unlike Harry Potter's depression-inducing Dementors. When the victim starts to weep, the Pogrebin attacks and eats them.

Porlock

fantastic beasts illustrated edition porlock

These small furry creatures have cloven hooves and don't trust humans. However, they like to guard horses and can often be found in stables. Harry's fifth-year Care of Magical Creatures class studied Porlocks, but this didn't make it into the film.

Quintaped

The tarantula-like Quintaped has five legs, each ending in a club foot. It enjoys the taste of humans. They live on the Isle of Drear and, according to magic legend, are actually the wizard clan the MacBoons who were transfigured into creatures by their enemies.

Ramora

fantastic beasts illustrated edition ramora

These giant silver fish possess the magical ability to anchor ships in place. They are considered a guardian of seafarers and the International Confederation of Wizards (which Grindelwald almost infiltrates in Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore) has put anti-poaching laws in place to protect them. They're inspired by a superstition about the real-life remora fish, which says they have the ability to slow or stop a ship.

Red Cap

fantastic beasts illustrated edition red cap

Red Caps resemble dwarves. They live wherever human blood has been spilled, such as on old battlegrounds. They will attempt to kill lone Muggles on dark nights.

Runespoor

Giant Runespoor in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them deleted scene

A Runespoor almost appeared in the first Fantastic Beasts film in a deleted scene. They are also mentioned in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, when Newt explains that each of the Runespoor's three heads serves a different function. The left head is the planner, the middle head is the dreamer, and the right head is the critic. Newt compliments Tina Goldstein by calling her a "middle head."

Fire Dwelling Salamander

These lizards are just what their name implies: salamanders that live and feed on fire. They can be sustained outside of fire with spicy food, such as peppers. Newt also compliments Tina by comparing her eyes to those of a Fire Dwelling Salamander.

Sea Serpent

fantastic beasts illustrated edition sea serpent

Sea Serpents are another well-known mythological creature. Though in the Wizarding World, the most famous "Sea Serpent," the Loch Ness Monster, is actually a Kelpie whose favorite form is that of a giant serpent. In Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, Newt has a serpent-like Kelpie in his basement, but an actual sea serpent has yet to appear in Harry Potter or Fantastic Beasts.

Shrake

fantastic beasts illustrated edition shrake

Another sea monster, the Shrake was created by wizards to destroy Muggle fishing nets. Their spines can also be used in potions. They only appear in the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them book and the Wonderbook: Book of Potions video game.

Snallygaster

The Snallygaster is another American folklore creature added to the 2017 edition of the book. This dragon-like creature competes with the Loch Ness Monster for "Most Publicity-Hungry Beast" and has appeared in several Muggle newspapers. A dragon or Snallygaster-like creature is featured in the New York Ghost, but it's breathing fire, which the Snallygaster cannot do.

Golden Snidget

Harry about to catch the golden Snitch in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

The Golden Snidget is a small, round, golden bird. They were originally used in Quidditch, but were eventually replaced with the Golden Snitch once wizards realized it wasn't good for them to be grabbing birds. Their history is more thoroughly described in Fantastic Beasts' companion book, Quidditch Through the Age. While Harry Potter films feature the Golden Snitch, the Golden Snidget has yet to appear.

Sphinx

fantastic beasts cases of the wizarding world sphinx

The Sphinx is one of the most famous creatures included in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. A Sphinx appeared in the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire book as part of the hedge maze task of the Triwizard Tournament. The film went a different direction with this scene, however.

Tebo

fantastic beasts cases of the wizarding world tebo

The Tebo is a warthog-like creature with a strong hide coveted by witches and wizards. They can turn invisible, making them difficult to catch or evade. They're commonly found in Congo and Zaire.

Wampus Cat

Fantastic Beasts American wizarding school - Ilvermorny

The Wampus is another Ilvermorny house mascot. The creature is inspired by one in the folktales of indigenous peoples of the United States of America. They are giant cats resembling lions.

Yeti

fantastic beasts cases of the wizarding world yeti

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them saved the best for last with the Yeti, a.k.a. the Abominable Snowman, a.k.a. Bigfoot, a giant Tibetan creature from real-life myths. Professor Gilderoy Lockhart has a fraudulent book called "Year with the Yeti" in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Since the Fantastic Beasts series has taken Newt Scamander and friends all over the world, it's possible they could travel to Tibet and encounter the Yeti in a future film. But even if the elusive Yeti doesn't make an appearance, some of these other unique beasts will almost certainly be featured in future Fantastic Beats and Where to Find Them movies.
