Melee Weapons
Scything Talons:

Tyranids equipped with Scything Talons count as having two close combat weapons and so gain +1 Attack. Creatures armed with two sets of Scything talons gain +2 Attacks in close combat instead of 1. No more than +2 Attacks can be gained in this way and the number of attacks from ranged weapon-symbiotes is not increased. Note this is the only way that Tyranids gain extra attacks in close combat from multiple weapons.

Rending Claws:

Tyranids with rending claws gain the Rending ability for close combat attacks.
