Looking for assistance on writing project

[UKDisasters]

I'm looking for assistance in designing an alien race, for lack for a better term. I'd like insights from people familiar with biology etc. Where is the best place to post such a question and follow up questions? Or is such a discussion entirely inappropriate for this forum? Thanks.

I moved your thread to science-fiction and fantasy so folks following that forum will see your post.

Thanks. I thought the purpose of that thread was for already existing material ...

No, I think people use it for discussing story ideas too. I may be wrong in which case someone will move your thread yet again.

The science fiction forum is for discussion of existing material however there is a subforum within it for science fiction writing. I have moved the thread there. If anyone is unclear the rules for the science fiction forums can be found here:

So what kind of race and what kind of questions do you have? If you list of set of criteria that you'd like your species to have I'm sure the community could come up with some ideas of how it'd work.
