Background Antica maintained a long-standing feud with the planet Selay, also in the Beta Renna star system, before diplomatic agreements reached between the two worlds at the 2364 Parliament Conference led to the admission of both races into the Federation.
Editors Notes Anticans appear to be evolved from a race similar to the Terran Mongoose.  The carnivorous Anticans are also unique among Federation cultures in their preference for consuming their meat alive.  (This entry, of course, assumes the applications of Antica and Selay for Federation membership were approved & ratified. This has not been established in an episode or movie.)
