Vortis

Vortis is a planet created by Bill Strutton for the science fiction series Doctor Who. It made its first appearance in The Web Planet, a storyline which featured in the second series of Doctor Who in 1965.
==Background==
The planet Vortis is in the Isop galaxy and is home to various insectoid species, including the Zarbi, the Menoptera, and the Optera. For a time it was dominated by the Animus which enslaved the Zarbi. It turned it into a world with pools of acid, a thin atmosphere with low oxygen, and natural crag-like rock formations.
