Memory Alpha

The M-class planet Argelius II in the Argelius system was the homeworld of the humanoid Argelians. It was located not too far from the Jewel stars. The leader of the planetary government was called the Prefect. (TOS: "Wolf in the Fold"; TNG: "Datalore")

The planet was a popular shore leave destination as well as a strategically-important space port for Starfleet in the 2260s. In 2267, the planet was the scene of several murders committed by the entity known as Redjac.

Captain Kirk and Lieutenant Commander Scott both enjoyed several visits on the planet, though Scott was accused of being a murderer during his first visit. (TOS: "Wolf in the Fold")

Scotty later recalled the incident on Argelius with Ensign Kane during his visit aboard the USS Enterprise-D in 2369. (TNG: "Relics")

According to a non-canon source, The Worlds of the Federation, the star that Argelius II orbits is named Argelius B (apparently part of a binary star system with Argelius A), and the Argelians refer to their world as Nelphia.
