YES! heh heh - although its a bit shabby - I was watching "Equinox Part II" last night - and I noticed in several scenes of all the aliens on Voyager there was a Talarian! Remember the small Talarian - with the bony head that Garak pointed to when he was having lunch with Bashir - who said that look at that Talarian - he is enjoying his lunch... (Julian was rushing his)
The same Talarian was also one of Quarks 'waiters' in the Ward room - I think it was for the Bajoran/Federation talks in "Rapture".
I don't know wht he was called Talarian - cause the Talarians from that Four Season TNG ep looked nothing like them - they didn't have the boney heads - I guess it is one of those variations of the spelling - since we've had
Talarians Telerians Talerians and Tamarians!
Why was he on Voyager though - they could have altered the make up a bit more - and its not as if you have to look hard - he was accessing a corridor display panel at one stage... maybe he somehow ended up in the Delta Quadrant and seeing a Federation ship - was looking to get home.
Also I noticed a few Voth... BUT! Like that race that could talk with the interdimensional beings - they could be just saurian in appearance - maybe they are offshoots or descendents of the Voth - but are not Voth - maybe like Vulcans and Romulans!
I'm interested in the T*l*ri*n though - I wonder what he was doing so far from home? an unstable wormhole!?!

Yeah and what are all those humans doing so far from home? What? They're not really humans, but actually aliens who happen to look exacly like humans....

Well, that ensign from First Contact showed up on Voyager this season. And what will become of the surviving Equinox crewmembers? I just saw the guy Seven dug out of the Equinox's Jeffries Tubes on Chicago Hope.

Aren't the Talarians the unpleasant guys who abducted the son of an admiral?
Anyway, I think no one of the writing staff thinks a lot about the lesser races. Every time they need a race that sounds somewhat familiar, they mention the T-races: Talarians, Tamarians, Tarellians, Tyrellians, Terellians, and some more...
Season 5 has no less than four references to the T(e/y/a)rellians, I can't hear a difference, and I wonder each time which race they actually refer to.
Tarellians: the people of whom there are only very few left, highly unlikely in all cases.
Terellians: They have four arms, so at least Chakotay's opponent in "The Fight" can't be a Terellian.
Tyrellians: This is probably the most obvious choice.

Martha Hakett (T'Rul/Seska) was going to play a four armed Terellian??? in All Good Things..., but its on the cutting room floor.
I guess Amarie from "Unification" might be a Tarellian
