The presence of subtypes may also help to explain the description of the weapons systems variously as phasers, disruptors, and phase-disruptors. Cardassians, though not completely annihilated, became an endangered species and it seems unlikely that their empire will ever return to the old days of glory. However, they also possess typically reptilianoid traits, both in biology and sociology, perhaps hinting on a synapsid-like nature.
