We know the Federation constists of over 200 species. But what species are in Starfleet and have been seen on the show? Here's a small list of all the species I can think of:

1.5 Klingon
1 Betazoid
1 Ferengi
many Vulcans
many Bolians
too many Humans

So, if you don't count the non-UFP species (Ferengi's and Klingons), you have only four species left. I musthave missed some here...

To state the obvious,
The Trill for one.
In st:IV we have the species with the long white hair, (the same species as the federation president in st:VI)

A little known one, people from Tiburon. They have ears like lettuce leaves. Dr Sevrin was seen in TOS, and we saw one in Uniform in DS9: "The Ship".

Bear in mind though that you don't have to be in the federation to join Starfleet. (As ever, it's who you know that matters! )

OK, i agree with the UFP-Starfleet relation.
But still, Ferengi's and Klingons aren't conventional Starfleet officers and don't really count as 'Starfleet-aliens'.

Who's the .5 Klingon? The only Klingons we've ever even seen in SF uniform are Worf and B'Elanna, and Worf's the only one who's actually a member of Starfleet.

And you forgot Benzars. And... That guy that Wesley was supposed to insult as part of his Academy entry test in "Coming of Age"; I think it started w/ a 'Z'.

And I'm sure there are other uniformed extras who have been done up as aliens. You might even say that some of the "humans" we've seen are Betazoids, as long as their eyes weren't shown close-up. Or even one of all the other species that look exactly like humans, as evidenced in TOS and early TNG.

Didn't they show "Centauris" or "Centaurians" in TOS a few times? I think they had white hair and antennae.

The .5 Klingon is of course Torres. She's half Klingon half-Human, to create intereting plots when they run out of FX-budget

But she wasn't tecnically Starfleet, since she never graduated from the academy.

Just a question. Where did the "200 species" figure come from? I thought that the UFP had around 150 planatary governments and colonies in it.

There's also Deltans. (Ilia in TMP)
And we first saw an Andorian in a Starfleet uniform in either Trek IV or VI. He was balding if I remember (to show off the fact that they finally had a budget).

How about Jaresh Inyo's people?

They're officially (it's from the script; not canon, but we might as well call them this...) the Grazerites.

To see more Starfleet aliens, check out the recreation deck scenes aboard the Enterprise in ST:TMP. The Art of Star Trek book has a clear shot of a Saurian in a white jumpsuit. Also, regarding Tellarites, have we ever seen one of them in a Starfleet uniform?
In Star Trek VI, there was a alien crewman with weird feet and in "The Drumhead" a crewman was one quarter Romulan (trying to pass as one quarter Vulcan)

Yaresh Inyo wasn't Starfleet, was he?

Just an answer, 200 is a nice number and sounds pretty convincing..
