In Procopius's Wars of Justinian, Vol 4(the 2nd vol of Vandalic War), Chapter 11, Section 42. Moorish said the Byzantine's cavalry will be frightened by the camels' noise. So far the army list only has irregular, light javelin horse and light javelinmen. I think camel could be added to the list according to the record.

IIRC the Moors used tethered camels as a sort of barricade, rather than troops mounted on camels. Sadly, our budget did not run to creating a "camel barricade" model.
