The Yorik Trema were troop transports used by the Yuuzhan Vong during their invasion of the Star Wars galaxy from the New Jedi Order series. They were used to deploy troops directly into the battlefield. They were capable of deploying 30 Chazrach support troops and 6 Yuuzhan Vong warriors. The Yorik-trema used several hollow molleung worms to deploy its passengers and to lash at nearby enemies. Like every other Yuuzhan Vong vessel, the Yorik-trema was made from yorik coral and was also capable of self-healing. For landing gear, the Yorik-trema used sharp landing claws that could land on almost any terrain. The Yorik-trema resembled a gigantic bulbous, green eel with a tail-like aft and two 'eyes' above its volcano cannon which was located in its mouth-like opening. These so called 'eyes' were actually Yuuzhan Vong sensors which could be used for tracking both enemy starfighters or its escort Coralskippers. The Yorik-trema also had ablative scales which it used when entering a planetary atmosphere. These ablative scales burned away during descent but protected the yorik-trema.
