Funnily enough, John Putsch played both Benzites on TNG (Mordock in Coming Of Age & Mendon in A Matter Of Honor). So, technically he did get a callback.

Since the prosthetics were already shaped to him, that makes sense.
There's also an appearance in LD.

There was also Hoya on DS9 S5E02 (The Ship).

Without a breathing apparatus, though? How odd.

My head canon is that when at a station, the computer can project a bubble force field for officers with specific atmospheric conditions.

I know. It cought me off-guard as well.

Ohhh so that joke about Wesley mistaking him for Mordock has an extra layer of humor to it š

This post is Jankom Pog erasure.

My apologies. Some of the blame should fall on Paramount for not keeping all of Trek available.

If Mot had been in charge, the federation would never have colonized so close to Cardassia.

Mot is wise. He trims the hair of everyone on the ship and overhears all goings on.

From what I can tell, the closest thing that Tellarites have to a main cast spot is Nus Braka , the recurring "Klingarite" (Klingon-Tellarite hybrid) main antagonist in Starfleet Academy, played by Paul Giamatti.

As was pointed out, I spaced on Jankom Pog from Prodigy.
Main cast, but still kindof a secondary character. I think he got 1 episode focus.

You see, the crazier-looking the species, the more you have to spend on the makeup department

Andorians aren't too taxing. Shran was slated to become a series regular in the proposed season 5.
