Ha, wrong!  The D'Arsay are referenced in a STO mission. In there, you have to scan their graves and find out the were pokliothermic, i.e. amphibian. That's why they revere the sun so much. |
The word is poikilothermic, and it refers to an organism whose body temperature is variable (i.e. what's inaccurately called a "cold-blooded" creature in vernacular). Amphibians are poikilotherms, but so are fish, reptiles, many invertebrates, and even naked mole rats (the only known mammalian ones).
