well, fielded on a 40k table yeah but ther are much larger organisms, such as the dominatrix, and the narn queen to name a few. and not to forget all the ships in a slinter fleet, they are alive too lol.

the largest one that has a model is a bio titan
a dominatrix the largest that ever comes onto a planet. its a specialized super synapse titan
norn queens may be larger then the dominatrix, but noone knows. they stay on the hive ships.
the hive ships themselves are probrobly the largest tyranid creatures in existance, because they are the bloated monstrosities (aka: awesomely killy things) that control the hive fleets themselves.

of course, if you wanna be nit picky you can say that the nids are all one organism...one mind bla bla bla...

From smallest to biggest (as far as I can remember)

Spore Mine
Ripper
Gaunt
Gargoyle
Genestealer
Biovore
Warrior
Ravenor
Lictor
Tyrant Guard
Broodlord
Zoanthrope
Hive Tyrant
Carnifex
Malanthrope
Heirodule
Trygon
Harridan
Heirophant (I think this is supposed to be the Bio-titan)
And now into space...
Escort Drones
Vanguard Drones
Kraken
Tyranid Cruisers (immature hive ships)
There's the Norn Queen and Dominatrix on the Hive ships, and The Hive ships themselves.

If there's anything I've missed there just say so.

EDIT:
Wakim, where'd you get that piece of info?

The Dominatrix is bigger than the Bio-Titan in games terms, someone built a model based on sizes and such as, and the Dominatrix was about 3 inchs bigger than the Bio-Titan
