Background information[]

This species name, according to the scripts for "The Homecoming", "The Abandoned", and "Extreme Measures" was pronounced as "BOZ-lik". [1]

According to StarTrek.com, Boslic was the homeworld of the Boslics. [2]^(X)

The Boslic's first "official" appearance came in the form of a female Boslic in the DS9 Season 2 premiere "The Homecoming".

Following her second appearance, the male Boslic was "officially" introduced in the fourth season episode "Sons of Mogh", however, their prosthetics did not resemble those of the aforementioned female, but rather were the same prosthetics worn by the unspecified alien Jaheel in the first season episode "Babel".

The fifth season finale "Call to Arms" saw the first male Boslic appearing with the same prosthetics as the female Boslic.

The makeup for one of the slave girls in the Xanthan floating bazaar in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Rajiin" is very close to that of a Boslic.

Apocrypha[]

According to the novel Serpents Among the Ruins, the Boslic homeworld was named Cort, which the Romulans occupied for ten years.
