They are physically distinguished by the very wrinkled skin, purplish-tan in color, flat faces and large ears. They have four fingers on each hand; none of which appears to be opposable, which is somewhat unusual for a humanoid species. There are some known individuals which, although never explicitly identified as Yridians, look almost identical to the species, with the exception of possessing five fingers, a different skin color and hair on the head. It is currently unknown if these represent a different species, subspecies of simply an ethnic variety of Yridians.

- The Yridians were a warp-capable humanoid race native to the planet Yridia, in the Beta Quadrant. (ST reference: Star Charts)
- The Yridians were a non-aligned species from the Alpha or Beta Quadrant. Most Yridians encountered tend to be information merchants or smugglers, and, because of this, they were generally viewed as untrustworthy. (TNG: "The Chase"; DS9: "Facets") Yridians invented a method based on the usage of gravimetric scanners to cheat at the dabo table. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong") Starfleet officer Rudolph Ransom made official first contact with the Yridians sometime in the mid-24th century. Prior to this, the Federation believed their race was extinct. (VOY: "Equinox")

Most Yridians encountered tend to be information merchants or smugglers, and, because of this, they were generally viewed as untrustworthy. (TNG: "The Chase"; DS9: "Facets") Yridians invented a method based on the usage of gravimetric scanners to cheat at the dabo table. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong") In 2342, the USS Beachmont rescued a Yridian freighter from a Cardassian attack. Commanding officer Paul Twining and an away team beamed over to the crippled freighter to find few survivors, including a Bajoran infant Twining and his wife eventually adopted: Russell Twining. (Star Trek: Pendragon) Starfleet officer Rudolph Ransom made official first contact with the Yridians sometime in the mid-24th century. Prior to this, the Federation believed their race was extinct.
