Which races would you have liked to see more of in Star Trek?

The Caldonians and the unseen Chrysalians from “The price”.
One of the few episodes that hinted of a broader galactic community outside of the Federation.
 
Oh, it'd be neat to see what a Krowtonan looks like, perhaps in the 32nd, or a follow up series set in the 25th (or prodigy).
 
Everyone from "Allegiance." The werewolf, the Max Headroom aliens, the guy from the neutral planet. I think it would have been fun to reunite the werewolf and Picard in some other episode and they hang out.

When STO started I was hoping SO much that the Chalnoth would be a playable species for the now multicultural Klingon Empire. They are aggressive, wear rugged outfits and have cranial ridges!
 
Non-humanoids:
Sheliak
Nasat
Medusans
Edosians
Aurellians
Tholians

Underutilized:
Tellarites
Rigelians (Chelons et al)
Deltans
Bynars
Betazoids
Talarians

Unseen:
Jarada
Legarans
Tzenkethi
Mathenites
Nyberrite Alliance
Barolians

…good opportunity for more non-humanoids.
 
The Breen! No voice cast budget necessary, and no need to ignore the unrealistic sci-fi trope of alien lips moving according to an Earth language they are not speaking, tee hee!
 
Wasn't the Phage cured? If no, maybe not since warp drive was severely limited for two centuries.

Kurros in "THINK TANK" said they cured the Phage, but I was always dubious about him being truthful. They clearly scanned Voyager and their records and are not above deceit to get what they wanted. (The 'Hazari Paradox' is proof of this.) I always thought it was a way to pique Janeway's interest, because you can see she was just looking around and didn't seem particularly interested in the problems they solved... until he mentioned 'curing the Phage'.

Not to mention the fact the Vidiians were about 40,000 light years away and I doubt they traveled that far in such a short time, considering the reputation they gained in the sector they were in at that time. (The Hazari bounty hunter made it clear they were notorious in that sector.)

And since they were interested in the quantum slipstream, it also points to them not having the ability to travel such a distance quickly. (While other shortcut methods have been shown before, nothing was ever shown that the think tank had the ability to travel such great distances.)


Bottom line, I think the Vidiians might actually have died off by the 32nd century... or at least, lost so many people that they are on the.verge of extinction.

That's what I think too.. I think their numbers are very depleted but they are still around in some fashion
