The great shadow descended like a falling cloud. And behold! it was a winged creature: if bird, then greater than all other birds, and it was naked, and neither quill nor feather did it bear, and its vast pinions were as webs of hide between horned fingers; and it stank. A creature of an older world maybe it was, whose kind, lingering in fortgotten mountains cold beneath the Moon, outstayed their day, and in hideous eyrie bred this last untimely brood, apt to evil. And the Dark Lord took it, and nursed it with fell meats, until it grew beyond the measure of all other things that fly; and he gave it to his servant to be his steed. Down, down it came, and then, folding its fingered webs, it gave a croaking cry, and settled upon the body of Snowmane, diggin in its claws, stooping its loned naked neck.
... a dark shape, like a cloud and yet not a cload, for it moved far more swiftly, came out of the blackness in the South, and sped toward the Company, blotting out all light as it approached. Soon it appeard as a great winged creature, blacker than the pits in the night.
...
Almost above him the winged shaped swerved. There was a harsh croaking scream, as it fell out of the air, vanishing down into the gloom of the eastern shore.
'...For he was a Nazgul, one fo the Nine, who ride now upon winged steeds. ...'
A vast winged shaped passsed over the moon like a black cloud. It wheeled and went north, flying at a speed greater than any wind of Middle-earth.
'...I heard you shout "messenger of Mordor". What was it? What could it do at Isengard?'
'It as a Black Rider on wings, a Nazgul,' said Gandalf

I think they are.. I just can't remember their names. I'm sure some LOTR fan website would have that info.
btw.. there are dragons in The Hobbit.

this is a description, not a name.
if somebody "officially" called it "Fellbeast" it just shows that they have'nt read the book. see my rant 2 posts up.
