The Tiburonian T'Lor
Template:Disambiguate
Tiburon was an inhabited planet. The atmosphere was capable of supporting humanoid life-forms. This was the homeworld for a warp capable species, the Tiburonians.
In 2149, Doctor Phlox attended an IME conference on Tiburon, where he briefly met a member of the Mazarite delegation. Unknown to him at the time, this member was actually a Klingon expert in metagenic research, named Dr. Antaak. The Klingons were not invited to the conference. (ENT: "Affliction")
Zora was an infamous scientist on Tiburon, known for her cruel and inhumane experiments on humanoid subjects to test the body chemistry of subject tribes. (TOS: "The Savage Curtain")
Tiburon was the former home of Dr. Sevrin in the 23rd century, where he studied to become an expert in the fields of acoustics, electronics and communications. (TOS: "The Way to Eden")
Background
As Tiburonians were serving in Starfleet, a reasonable conjecture would be that this planet was a Federation member. However, as the political affiliation of Tiburon was never stated in the canon, whether or not the planet was a member remains uncertain.
