Talarian

Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

The Talarians are a humanoid species native to the Alpha Quadrant. Their government is the Talarian Republic.

Talarians are characterized by a distinctive hairless enlargement of the coronal area of the skull extending in two lobes to the back of the head. Talarian blood is red and they are prone to radiation burns and respiratory distress.

Raktajino is known to have intoxicating effect on Talarians. (DS9 episode: "A Simple Investigation")

In the 2360s, Talarian military weaponry was inferior to Federation standards, consisting of neutral particle weapons, X-ray lasers, and Merculite rockets, and thus didn't represent a serious tactical threat to a Galaxy class starship. They also employed subspace proximity detonators and self-destruct devices that were installed on their ships. (TNG episode: "Heart of Glory")

The Talarian homeworld could be named Talar or Talaria.
