Example Names[]

This book features "example names" for all of the menctioned species. Many of these names are first heard on the book itself - and thus nothing is know of that "character", except the species. For instance, say the Sludirs: Chyanlev, Dukarz, Jyzatch, Kaylorz, Opolzur, Ryzrytch, Shume, Webyllus and Zanjast Rahm. None of them is listed in the Wookieepedia, but what should we say of them? Something like:

  • Shume: A popular name given to Sludirs. Sources: Ultimate Alien Anthology. Categories: Sludirs, Naming? Characters?

I would have no problem updating the wookieepedia with all these names, if anyone is interested, and if anyone tells me what to say about them! - Skippy Farlstendoiro 14:04, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Artwork[]

It needs to be brought up somewhere that some of the pictures of species in this book are not the most accurate of interpretations, or are improperly scaled in some cases.The S'Kytri, for example, are described as being blue or green, with feathered wings coming out of their back. Their picture depicts a red S'kytri with leathery wings attached to their back and wrists. Ranat were drawn with absurdly large tusks for another example.--Valavaern 06:43, March 20, 2012 (UTC)

  • That's not really that noteworthy, different artists will always have varying depictions of things. However, things like the S'Kytri example you mentioned would be something good to include in the Behind the scenes section for the species' article. nayayen★talk 12:48, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
    • A fair enough idea, and the S'Kytri inconsistencies ARE already mentioned in that article. I'm bringing it up here because there seems to be a fair number of visual inconsistencies all stemming from this book.Valavaern 15:51, March 20, 2012 (UTC)
  • It's worth mentioning that the comic the S'kytri orginate in depicts them with wings attached to their arms, similar to the depiction in the UAA. And the crazy ranat tusks appeared long before UAA, as well. You want a plethora of inconsistent depictions? Look at the original Essential Guide to Alien Species.

Book containing 20,000,000 sentient species in the Star Wars galaxy in the UAA[]

Will there be an UAA book containing the 20,000,000 sentient species in the Star Wars galaxy (excluding extragalactic ones; including Yuuzhan Vong, Nagai, Tof, etc.) or not? Dantescifi 13:53, August 19, 2017 (UTC)

  • Er... what exactly made you think there could even be such a thing? Also, even if this unlikely situation were to happen, how and why would we know? O_o --Lelal Mekha The Uprising crest (Audience Room) 19:03, August 19, 2017 (UTC)
