Zakdorn;
(left) Humanoid race reputed to be
formidable warriors and regarded for over 9000 years to be the
greatest strategic minds in the galaxy. This reputation is so strong
that it has not been tested in recent memory. While many Zakdorn find
employment as strategists or planners, the resounding majority
serve
in bureaucratic or minor political positions. Physically, the
Zakdorn do not meet their reputation, they have pale blue/grey skin
with many folds, and the majority of Zakdorns are obese and weak.
This has not affected their reputation, however, and Zakdorn
strategists are of great value. TNG "Peak
Performance" 2-47
Zaldan; (right) Humanoid race characterized by webbed fingers and slightly amphibious features. Members of the Federation, they have found integration into the galactic society difficult. This is because they interpret normal courtesy as dishonesty and react with extreme irritation and occasional violence. Once this is taken into account, however, they are a friendly and helpful people. TNG "Coming of Age" 1-19
Zalkonian;
(right) Humanoid
race from Zalkon in the Zeta Gelis Cluster, distinguished by
multiple horizontal facial ridges. They have limited interstellar
technology but advanced weapons technology on par with the
Federation. In recent years some members of their species have
exhibited painful isoelectric bursts as a precursor to a transition
to a noncorporeal entity. They come from a repressive government that
seeks to destroy all those who exhibit signs of this change. TNG

Zeon;
(left) Humanoid colonists from outermost
world in the M43 Alpha system. Since their colony was founded several
hundred years ago, their parent world of Ekos has come to consider
the Zeon's as another race entirely. This was almost the end of the
Zeon race in 2268 when a freak accident caused Ekos to mimic the
1930's Terran culture of Nazi Germany and pursued a campaign of
genocide against the Zeons. Only Federation intervention stopped this
potential mass murder. The Zeons are almost indistinguishable from
Terrans. TOS "Patterns of Force" 2-50
Zetarian;
(right) Mysterious non corporeal life
forms from Zetar near Klingon space. An unknown catastrophy on Zetar
destroyed all corporeal life but separated out the intelligences of
the dominant Zetarian humanoids. The surviving Zetarian entities have
traveled space for millenia and may be completely immortal. They need
no spacecraft and can travel up to 99.9% of the speed of light
without assistance. All travelers should be warned that the Zetarians
are seeking humanoid bodies to inhabit. When they find a
physiologically compatible body they will take posession of it. The
Zetarian presence can be removed by controlled decompression therapy. TOS

Zevians;
Civilization. In 2374, Zevian authorities requested information on a
smuggling ring from the security office at Deep Space 9. DS9

Zibalian; (left) Largely humanoid people from an unknown world in deep space. They have distinctive facial tattooing and some wear decorative metal ribbons on their face. Their best known achievement is the Stacius Trade Guild. A consortium of wealthy traders who deal in many highly lucrative products such as Dilithium or rare compounds like Hitritium. They are the chief competition to the Ferengi in many sectors. Zibalian traders are known for large collections of rare and valuable goods. TNG "The Most Toys" 3-70
