| Loque'eque [21] |
Species native to the Delphic Expanse. The Loque'eque became extinct several centuries prior to 2153; they created a virus which would convert those it infected into replicas of their own species in an attempt to keep their race alive. The appearence of these replicas is the only remaining record of the appearence of the Loque'eque. [21] |
| Lothra [22] |
Hydrogen breathing sentient life form. Dax knew a Lothra who was in love with an Oxygene despite the fact that they could only spend 40 minutes a day in the same environment. [22] |
| Lumbuans [23] |
A pre-warp civilisation, native to the planet Lumbua in the UFC 86659 system. The Lumbuans were a peaceful people predisposed to philosophy and discussion above action.

Lurians are a Humanoid species [18] native to the alpha quadrant. Externally they are slightly larger than Humans; their skin tends to be rough textured and brown in colour. [26] They normally have hair on their bodies, but some Lurians have been known to become bald when poisoned by exposure to Latinum. Lurians have two stomachs, multiple hearts, [25] and four lungs. [27] The Lurian government is a monarchy. [25] The Lurian people tend to be highly talkative and excitable - on hearing of the Dominion threat, one Lurian native of Deep Space Nine ran naked and screaming into the Bajoran temple to beg the prophets for protection. [16] They generally have large families - eighteen siblings is not unusual for a Lurian family. [28] |
| Lurillian [29] |

| Lynar [31] |
Batlike creature which lives on Celtris III [31] |
| Lysian [32] |
Species which were at war with the Satarrans as of 2368. The Lysians were far behind the Federation in weapons technology, and the Satarrans used a mind altering technology to fool the Enterprise-D crew into attacking them. [32] The Lysian central command complex closely resembles the Edo god, and it is therefore a possibility that the Lysians were also involved with this being at some time in the past. [33] |
| Lyssarian [34] |
Species which used the Lyssarian desevae to make clones. [34] |
| Lyssarian Desert Larvae [34] |
Animal life form. The epidermal layer of the larvae secretes a viral suppressant useful as a salve for cuts and bruises. When implanted with DNA from a donor species it exactly replicates that species' life cycle, becoming a perfect duplicate. However, the clone goes through the life cycle at an extremely accelerated pace, being born, growing old and dying in approximately 15 days. The Lyssarians call these creatures Mimetic Simbiots, and as of 2154 their existence was a very closely guarded secret. [34] |
| Lytasian [35] |
Civilisation who once warred with the Ferengi. History records that ten Ferengi stood against a force of two hundred and fifty Lytasians - and were all killed. [35] |
