The Crawler Broodmother is a stronger variant of the Crawler.

Description

The Crawler Broodmother is a large beast which hunts surrounded by Crawlers. It is significantly larger than a Crawler, but its behavior remains similar. It has several eyes, crown-like protrusions on its head, and a large stomach; presumably where the Crawler Eggs are stored for its ranged attack. A Crawler Broodmother will attack its target using its jaw, preferring to continue swimming past its prey. A blow to the skull of a Human can be fatal.

In-game

The Crawler Broodmother spawns within a swarm of crawlers. Typically, 1-2 Crawler Broodmothers can spawn at a time depending on the mission's difficulty. It attacks the submarine using its ranged attack before closing the distance and assaulting the hull. Upon taking damage, it will drop a Crawler Egg which slowly floats down until it makes contact with a surface. Once contact has been made, the egg will explode causing severe hull damage. Crawler eggs can be harvested before they make contact with a surface, and deconstructed for Sulphuric Acid, but they cannot be stacked.
