The Tritivores were a species of fly-headed humanoids. (DW: Planet of the Dead)

Biology

Tritivores were grey-skinned humanoids with insectoid heads resembling those of flies. Their heads had two large compund eyes, and several complex parts making up a mouth. Tritivores communicated by clicking these parts to produce sound. They had simple, two-digit hands. They ate the excretion of other species. (DW: Planet of the Dead)

Technology

The Tritivores have fairly large starships used for trade which are powered using a crystal nucleus. The Tritivores were found to be trading with the planet of San Helios but crash landed after they encountered unknown swarm creatures that had turned the planet into a desert by devouring everything in sight. The creatures jammed the ships' open glove system and caused the ship to lose velocity but the Docter made use of their technology by fastening anti-gravity clamps found in the ship to the bus they travelled in to get it working to fly back through the worm whole to safety.
