Praetorian Xenomorphs are a massively powerful and extremely dangerous strain of the Xenomorph species. They are among the largest strain of Xenomorph encountered, dwarfed only by the Queen and few other castes. They are also the most common of the late-stage Xenomorphs, being observed in nearly all known mature Hives. A stage 6 strain of Xenomorph, they are sometimes referred to as Royal Guards and Young Queens.
