Background
It is not explicitly stated how these designations are assigned, though it is generally assumed that they are simply incremental, each newly encountered species getting a number one higher than the previous. This mostly holds up when comparing numbers to probable first contact dates or vicinity to Borg space, though some anomalies exist, most notably the Alpha Quadrant species Ferengi having an unusual low number of 180. Numbers appear to be assigned at first contact, and don't seem to be recycled even after the whole species is assimilated.
An alternate theory is that the numbers categorize species, where 1xxx is one type of species and 2xxx is another and so on.
Apocrypha
In Christie Golden's Seven of Nine novel, several more designations were listed:
- Species 407: Lennli
- Species 1811
- Species 2822
- Species 3105: Rhawn
- Species 4774: Skedan
In Star Trek Armada, a Species 9341 was mentioned.
According to a screen saver released featuring pictures of the Star Trek: Voyager crew and Borg screen displays and lists three further species:
- Species 2000: Cardassians
- Species 3783: Romulans
- Species 5008: Klingons
In Star Trek: Voyager - Elite Force, Seven of Nine mentions Species 1567, which was engaged in a long range war. They used automated gunships called dreadnoughts in order to defeat their enemy. One of them was transported to the "Forge" where a mission took place in the game.
