Regalian fleaspider

Regalian fleaspiders are an arachnid species from Regalian space.

Regalian fleaspiders are almost extinct due to the accidental introduction of Orion emerald finches into their habitats. 

In 2373, Julian Bashir asked Quark to import Regalian fleaspiders to Deep Space 9, planning to use their venom to improve Kira Nerys' blood circulation. Quark did not seek a permit for the import of the fleaspiders and also brought in illegal Regalian liquid crystals, which placed both himself and Bashir in legal difficulties with Odo.
