Saurians were a reptilian humanoid species native to the planet Sauria. (Star Trek: The Motion Picture; ST novel: The Worlds of the Federation; Star Trek Online)
Biology[]
Saurians were capable of seeing ultraviolet light, and thus had words for colors that did not translate into Federation Standard. (Bait and Switch: "Reality Is Fluid, Part II")
History[]
The Saurians had informal contact with Earth Cargo Service ships as early as the 2150s, with the first such contact said to have been made by ECS Silk Road in 2157. Official first contact took place in 2162 between the Global League government and USS Essex. At this time the Global League was engaged in a cold war with the rival M'Tezir alliance. (ENT novel: A Choice of Futures)
In 2392 Aennik Okeg became the first Saurian ever elected President of the United Federation of Planets. (Star Trek Online)
