Jane Ross (9 January 193227 June 1985; age 53) was the actress best known for playing Tamoon in the Star Trek: The Original Series second season episode "The Gamesters of Triskelion". This was her only known television acting role.

Ross had previously made an uncredited appearance in Sweet Smell of Success (1957, with Lawrence Dobkin and John Fiedler). In 1968, she appeared in an uncredited role of a savage Human in Planet of the Apes, which starred Roddy McDowall and featured James Daly, Lou Wagner, Paul Lambert, Billy Curtis, and Felix Silla, with a musical score by Jerry Goldsmith.

Despite rumors to the contrary, "Jane Ross" was not a pseudonym used by Beatrice Arthur, and they were not the same person. [1](X)
