The Aldereenians were a sentient species of insectoids.[1] They were native to the Aldereen system,[2] located in the Inner Rim Territories.[3] By 8 ABY,[4] they maintained a consulate on Coruscant. The consulate was located almost 200 kilometers from the Alderaanian consulate. On the day of the wedding of Han Solo and Leia Organa, their best man, Luke Skywalker, was delivered to the Aldereenian consulate by an errant shuttle driver.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Aldereenians were created for the 1994 novel The Courtship of Princess Leia, written by Dave Wolverton.[1]

The Essential Atlas and Galactic Cartography: Official Discussion on the Jedi Council Forums (Literature board; posted by jasonfry on December 11, 2007, 7:59am; accessed March 6, 2016): "I wouldn't get your hopes up re alien homeworlds, beyond simple stuff like the Planetnamian species getting a Planetnamia on the map or things Dan and I can account for with a relatively quick reference." (backup link) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. This article treats the Aldereen system as the location of one such homeworld with regard to the Aldereenian species.
