Ovion

The Ovions were a race of insectoid creatures with four arms. They were conquered by the Cylon Empire and added to their Alliance some time before the Battle of Cimtar. Having settled on Carillon for the purpose of tylium mining for the Cylon war effort, the Ovions soon constructed a tourist outpost consisting of bars and casinos, which would lure Galacticans to Carillon and who they could then kill and consume.Battlestar Galactica, episode: "Saga of a Star World, Part 2".
Following the Battle of Cimtar, the Ovions were met by a large refugee fleet fleeing the Twelve Colonies of Man, with their leader extending the Ovions' hands to them, negotiating with Sire Uri of the Council of the Twelve to allow mass migration of civilians to the surface, while the Cylons were themselves made aware of the arrival. The Ovions' own efforts were limited and they had only killed a few of their guests before their plot was exposed. In the resulting combat between the Cylons and the Colonial Warriors, the Ovions' fuel storage was ignited, destroying their mine and settlement.
