The Xindi-Reptilians are a member of the multi-species Xindi race. They are easily the most aggressive of the six species, which share a genetic ancestry.

They have yellow to brown-colored scales with multiple spikes coming out of their heads. They have yellow eyes with slitted vertical pupils, and are cold blooded. Like other Xindi, however, they have characteristic ridges on their cheek bones.

Reptilians are perceived as being untrustworthy and impatient by the other Xindi species. (ENT: "The Shipment") A common Reptilian saying is "Patience is for the dead." It is said that "Dealing with Reptilians is like bargaining with the sun. You make no progress, and you come away burned." Nevertheless the Reptilians were the first choice for when force was needed. (ENT: "Azati Prime")

With their easily provoked and opinionated nature, Xindi-Insectoids often sided with the Reptilians on certain issues. They sometimes even shared ships with each other. (ENT: "Rajiin")

Reptilian weapons use eel-like power cells. The biorifles work on a rotating modulation that self-destructs if accessed by other species (see Xindi technology).

The Reptilians are the species of Xindi that seemed to be most interested in destroying the planet Earth. The Reptilians live out a militaristic lifestyle and hope to ultimately rule over all the other species of Xindi. Reptilian soldiers are surgically implanted with a "suicide gland" that unleashes a neurotoxin when they are captured. (ENT: "Rajiin") The Reptilians also use thermal chambers on board their ships due to their poikilothermic metabolisms. (ENT: "The Council")

Reptilians prefer to be on or near the ground as opposed to up in the air.

Commander Dolim was the Reptilian representative on the Xindi Council until 2154. (ENT: "Zero Hour")

The Reptilians' uniforms were reused from the Reman costumes.
