The Lurians are an alien species from the planet Luria and are rarely seen outside of the Ionite Nebula region. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior") The Lurian government is controlled by the Royal Family of Luria. (DS9: "Who Mourns for Morn?")
Physiology and culture
Lurians are known to have multiple hearts (DS9: "Through the Looking Glass") and two stomachs. As a result they are not only more resistant to damage than most species, but are also able to withstand poisons and other toxins much better. They are able to store liquids in their second stomach for many years if necessary.
The average Lurian is approximately the same height as the average Human (perhaps a few centimeters taller), but has a much broader and heavier body. Lurians are grayish - or tan - skinned beings descended from mammals. Their most noteworthy feature is their narrow, elongated heads. They have wide mouths, puggish noses, and small, deep-set eyes.
It is Lurian custom to bring gifts of food and drink for the deceased so they will have something to sustain them in the afterlife. (DS9: "Who Mourns for Morn?")
