Xantoras.  Planet that had frequent changes in its government.  One such change occured in 2153 after a few years of instability.  A militant faction took over and demanded that all off-worlders leave the planet.  The S.S. Enterprise came to Xantoras at the request of the Denobulan Science Academy to retrieve a few Denobulan geologists whom they had lost contact with.  ("The Breach" [ENT]).

Xarantine ale
.  Drink that was a commodity for the Xarantine people.  The
Klingon scout Somraw raided the Xarantine outpost, stealing some of the ale, which was later found to be infected by the Xarantines.  ("Sleeping Dogs" [ENT]).

Xarantine outpost.  Outpost for the Xarantine people that was successfully raided by the Klingon scout Somraw.  ("Sleeping Dogs" [ENT]).

xenomythology.  The study of alien myths and legends.  Hudak studied xenomythology.  ("The Breach" [ENT]).

Xindi.  Race from the Delphic Expanse.  The Xindi were informed by a faction from the future that humans would destroy their population.  As a countermeasure, the Xindi were given information on how to build a weapon to destroy Earth.  They performed a test using a Xindi probe, which destroyed a large area in Earth's Carribbean.  ("The Expanse" [ENT]).

Xindi probe.  Small spherical vessel commanded by a solo Xindi pilot.  It was the test bed for a weapon used to destroy Earth
, and in 2153 cut a swath 4,000 kilometers long starting in Florida, cutting through Cuba, and ending in Venezuela.  After it had finished firing, it dismantled and crashed in central Asia where it was retrieved by a Vulcan transport.  The pilot was found dead, and there was proof in the debris that one of the devices was constructed in the future.
  ("The Expanse" [ENT]).

xylathoric acid.  Substance used to thermalize metals.  ("The Seventh" [ENT]).

Xyrillian ship.  Starship that was hiding in the wake of the S.S. Enterprise's plasma exhaust, through the use of stealth technology, in order to hitch a ride by allowing the exhaust to replenish their terraphasic coils.  The vessel was discovered when the exhaust was ignited.  Commander Tucker went through a decompression process to help repair the ships engines.  The ship had many organic interior components including grass and fruit growing on the walls.  Once the engines were repaired, the Xyrillians left, only for the coils to break down again a few days later.  The Enterprise discovered the ship eight days later in the wake of a Klingon battle cruiser.  When the Klingons discovered it, they only agreed to let the Xyrillians go if they gave them some of their holotechnology.  The ship had a crew of 36.  ("Unexpected" [ENT]).

 

Xyrillians.  Humanoid, spacefaring race with reptilian features such as dermal plating which changed colors to show their mood.  Xyrillian pregnancies only utilized the genetic material of the mother which was placed in the ribcage of the male.  The gestation period for a pregnancy was six weeks.  Their method of reproduction was putting both hands into a box of granules that granted them telepathic powers.  ("Unexpected" [ENT]).
