As the name implied, Monoids were one-eyed creatures that unusually named themselves by a relative ranking number, rather than by any sort of unique name. An individual named "One" could easily find him or herself demoted to "Four" if their political fortunes were reversed. Only vaguely humanoid, they were initially a slave race to humans who fled the Earth following its alleged destruction. Over the course of the very long journey, they eventually overthrew their oppressors and reversed their political position entirely. This change in fortunes was largely the result of the fact that the First Doctor and his companions unwittingly interfered with the status quo on the Ark by introducing a cold virus to the ship's non-resitant human population.

If you like alien species that are based on Earth animals, you're in luck. All you have to do is go to the page of an Earth mammal and check out the "looks like" box. For instance, if you wanna know what aliens look like elephants, just go that pachyderm's page and find yourself a breadcrumb at the top of the page.

One of the cooler categories having o do with species is species by biology. Take a gander! That category will help you find species by the special biology they have. Aquatic species, energy beings, species with binary vascular systems — they're all here waiting for you.
