Terellians are a sapient spacefaring species.
Behind the scenes[]
In the year 2370, Captain Jean-Luc Picard crashed on an uninhabited planet where he found the remains of a Terellian freighter and met a mysterious castaway who claimed to be the only survivor. It was clear to him that she was not Terellian, however, because she would be lacking two arms, implying that members of this species have four. However, a two-armed Terellian boxer is featured in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "The Fight", leading to the possibility of two different species with the same name. Another possibility is that only the females have four arms. This species is not to be confused with the similarly named Terrellians (a Delta Quadrant species) and Tarellians.
