Lieutenant junior grade Trillya was a humanoid alien Starfleet officer who served during the late 23rd century. In 2286, she served aboard the USS Shepard as a communications officer.
That year, the Shepard was among the starships disabled by the Whale Probe when Trillya sent a distress call to Starfleet Headquarters. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)

The name Trillya originated from the source's script.
The fact that she is an "alien" is taken from the film's credits, where she was as "Alien Communications Officer".
