Non humanoid silicon based lifeform from Janus VI. Horta are silicon
based 'blobs' that live underground. They move through the rocks using
powerful acids secreted from their glands. Horta can only be contacted
telepathically. The Horta have no artificial technology but their powerful
burrowing abilities have aided mining operations on Janus VI. Horta are
quite friendly and have joined the Federation, but do appreciate visitors
not visit several chambers they keep for personal use. TOS "Devil
in the Dark" 1-25

Humaniod
Intelligent bipedal life-forms, generally mammalian, commonly found on many Class-M planets. Humans, Vulcans, Klingons, Cardassians, and Romulans are among the many humanoid species known throughout the galaxy. Despite the vast distances separating these planets, many humanoid species have been found to share a remarkable commonality in form and genetic coding. These similarities were believed to be evidence of a common ancestry, a humanoid species that lived in our galaxy some four billion years ago. This species apparently seeded the oceans of many class-M planets with genetic material, from which a number of humanoid forms eventually evolved. TNG "The Chase" 6-146

Hunters
of Tosk
Humanoids from Tosk's planet in the Gamma Quadrant who engage in an elaborate
sport that involved hunting a live, intelligent, humanoid prey. In 2369
a group of Hunters traced their Tosk to station Deep Space 9 and demanded
his return. They explained to Sisko that in their culture the Tosk are
bred, raised and trained for the sole purpose of being hunted. They appeared
to be reptiloid like the Tosk b
ut
with hair and a smoother face below the forehead. The Hunters breed and
raise Tosk as a noble creature with but one purpose in life: to be hunted
for sport. Ironically, the Hunters seemed much more dependent upon their
high-tech weapons and body armor than the Tosk they have bred, who appeared
to be endlessly resourceful. DS9 "Captive Pursuit" 1-6

Hupyrian
Tall race of quiet humanoids from somewhere in Ferengi space. Hupyrians
live mainly as servants to rich or prominent businessmen and politicians,
particularly Ferengi. Their devotion to their masters is legendary, and
they are willing to die to protect them. Hupyrians have been servants
of the Ferengi since very early in Hupyrian history, thus they have no
native modern technology. Hupyrians are very tall humanoids with tight
skin, a continuously slightly frowning expression and a very weak voice
that leads many to believe that they are mute. Instead they only talk
when absolutely necessary. DS9 "The Nagus" 1-11

Klingonese word for "outsider," and the term used for a race which conquered and pillaged the Klingon homeworld Qo'noS. They also apparently knew of the Bajoran wormhole and its uses; they took the Sword of Kahless about 1,000 years ago to their Gamma Quadrant homeworld. DS9 "The Sword Of Kahless" 4-81

Husnock
An extinct civilization described as having exhibited extremely violent
and destructive behavior. A Husnock ship attacked and destroyed the colony
at Delta Rana IV in 2366. In retribution, the only survivor of the colony,
a Douwd, destroyed the entire Husnock race. TNG "The Survivors"
3-51
