The Lissepians are a humanoid species native to the Alpha Quadrant planet, Lissepia, and were frequent visitors to Deep Space Nine.
During the 24th Century, the Lissepians were active trade partners with the Cardassians because they were always noted for paying their bills. Lissepians were often used as intermediaries between the Cardassians and their colonies in the Demilitarized Zone, following its creation in 2370. The Lissepians, however, were usually caught more often then thier fellow Cardassian intermediaries, the Xepolites. (DS9: "The Maquis, Part II")
In 2369, while visiting Deep Space Nine, a Lissepian cargo ship captain purchased 5,000 wrappages of yamok sauce, from Nog and Jake Sisko, in trade for a hundred gross of top grade self-sealing stem bolts. The Lissepian had the extra stem bolts as a result of an cancelled order from a Bajoran who could not pay for them. (DS9: "Progress")
In 2370, while traveling to Cardassia IV, Chief O'Brien and Major Kira successfully bluffed their way into Cardassian space by disguising their runabout Rio Grande as the Lissepian transport, Martuk. They were scanned by a Cardassian Navigational Control Post, which recognized that the ship's subspace field emitters were malfunctioning and offered assistance. In fear of getting caught, Major Kira quickly covered with the explaination that they were hauling a shipment of high priority Rulot seeds to Gul Marayn on Cardassian IV, and at risk of ruining the crops they would deny help and make the repairs following their delivery. (DS9: "The Homecoming")
In 2371, the USS Mekong responded to a distress call made by a Lissepian supply ship that was under attack by a Maquis interceptor. (DS9: "Heart of Stone")
In 2372, Quark purchased a program, from a Lissepian, that allowed him to run holographic waiters in his bar while Rom, and the rest of this wait staff, were on strike. Unfortunately, the Lissepian neglected to inform Quark that certain energy sources can interfere with the imaging system. (DS9: "The Bar Association")
