* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'': Displacer beasts, black-furred feline predators with tentacles growing from their shoulders, are visually inspired by Coeurl, although they have different thematic shticks (displacer beasts don't share Coeurl's peculiar feeding habits, and are instead distinguished by a supernatural ability to make themselves invisible while projecting an image of themselves a few meters away).

* ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'': "[[Recap/StarTrekS1E1TheManTrap The Man Trap]]": The so-called [[FanNickname salt vampire]] might have been inspired by the Coeurl, which drains the body of potassium. It's quite likely the writers were influenced by the book or the original magazine stories as the vibe is quite similar -- a military/scientific crew of {{Bold Explorer}}s seeking out new life who have to deal with a MonsterOfTheWeek before moving on to the next adventure.

* ''Film/{{Alien}}'': After the movie came out, Van Vogt sued Creator/TwentiethCenturyFox for plagiarism, though the case was settled out of court. The writers denied any connection, and the xenomorph life cycle could well have been inspired by the spider wasp just like the Ixtl was. Indeed, the connections go about as far as 1) there's a malevolent alien being on a spaceship and 2) it incubates its young in human hosts- which could probably sum up about half the SciFiHorror genre today. In terms of theme, characterization, plot, and even the creature's general design, they're completely different.
