Gorta

Gorta, a Dopterian in 2370.

The Dopterians are an unscrupulous humanoid species found throughout the Alpha Quadrant.

They are distant relatives of the Ferengi, who share a similar four-lobed brain structure and with it an inablility to be read by telepathic species such as Betazoids. (TNG: "Firstborn", DS9: "The Forsaken")

Dopterians also share an unusual resemblance to the Kobheerian species; their appearance is almost identical, however Dopterians have Ferengi-like noses, whereas Kobheerians have two large, elongated flat nostrils in the place of a nose.

Background

The Dopterians apparently have an automated attack weapon known as a "Dopterian interceptor" according to DS9: "Business as Usual". The name was not verbally given on screen, however, the attacking device was identified as such in the script.

In the script for "The Forsaken", a Dopterian present near Lwaxana Troi was described as a 'distant cousin to a Ferengi'.
