The Taltic were a spacefaring species in the Milky Way Galaxy, with at least one individual having blue-green scales. In 2372, Miles O'Brien noticed a Taltic traveller in Quark's bar who was drinking from a bottle of Qualian sea brandy. O'Brien thought the Taltic's scales were giving off a smell due to the Taltic not having bathed in some time. (DS9 novel: The Heart of the Warrior) It was never specified if the Taltic were from the Alpha, Beta, or Gamma Quadrant.
