Unmasking a Malurian
Malurian script
The Malurians were a scaly, gray-skinned and warp-capable species from the Malurian system. The Malurians had a total population of four billion on four inhabited planets.
In 2151, the Malurians were secretly mining the Akaali homeworld for veridium isotope using drilling equipment saturated with tetracyanate 622. The mining team was lead by Garos, who was disguised as an Akaali shopkeeper most of the time. Most of the other miners were also disguised as Akaali. The entrance to the mine was accessed through a secret passage in Garos' shop. (ENT: "Civilization")
In 2267, their civilization, consisting of four billion people was entirely wiped out by the Earth space probe Nomad. The Malurians were being studied by a Federation science team under the direction of Dr. Manway at the time. (TOS: "The Changeling")

Background
Given that some Malurians had traveled to another planet over a century earlier, it is likely that some Malurians were off-world when their civilization was destroyed by Nomad, unless the species was drawn home at that time for unknown reproductive or cultural reasons.
