The Xindi are unique in that the "race" is composed of five (once six) distinct species. These share the same genetic origins but have developed along very distinct lines: aquatics, arboreals, avians, insectoids, primates, and reptilians. All Xindi, regardless of species, share characteristic ridges on their cheekbones.
