WARNING: Hidden Observation Contact species.

 Classification Trops (Culture Type 010 P) inhabiting a moon (Tropis) in the Afung system, who just developed into a sentient semi-arboreal species and only discovered fire a few decades before Union contact was made. In appearance, a Trop male strongly resembles an erect 206 cm tall, 166 kg grayish black Terran Koala. Females tend to be 10 -12% smaller and lighter.

A hidden Union Anthropology Observation post in their highest mountain was established in 5043.

They are an extremely primitive, stone age hunter-gatherer society. No further information available at this time.
