I think I recall an ecology being written up in Dragon magazine once (during its final printed years), but alas, I have them not with me to look up. Perhaps another scribe has more information.

There was an ecology article for them in Dragon 339.

I thought I smelled something... who xvarted?

And I always felt the 'Blues' were the updated, 3e version of them. If you want to use both, I suppose you could say the Xvarts were the 'failed attempts' at breeding Blues.

They were first published in 1E in the Fiend Folio which means they may have also been in White Dwarf before it became a house organ for all things Warhammer.

They were also mentioned in the 1E deity write-up for Raxivort, their patron, who is also the deity of bats and rats and a former servitor of Graz'zt (I think he was Graz'zt's master of slaves).

I think the Living Greyhawk Journal included a 3E write-up of them. As for 4E, they've been renamed "xivorts", a shout-out to Raxivort, and are fey humanoids and have been published in 4E's Monster Manual III.
