Venusians

In science fiction and ufology, a Venusian or Venerian is a native inhabitant of the planet Venus. Many science fiction writers have imagined what extraterrestrial life on Venus might be like.
==Etymology==
The word "Venusian" is simply a combination of the name of the planet Venus and the suffix -ian, formed on the analogy of "Martian" (as if = "Marsian"). It is usually pronounced or . Based on the latter pronunciation, the spelling "Venutian" is sometimes found.
The classically derived form of the word would be "Venerean" or "Venerian" (cf. (ラテン語:venereus, venerius) "belonging to the goddess Venus"), but these forms have been used by only a few authors (e.g. Robert A. Heinlein). Scientists sometimes use the adjective "Cytherean" to describe Venus, from the goddess' epithet ''Cytherea''. "Venusian" is used in preference to "Venerean" due to the latter's use in the term venereal disease.〔Dave Hanes, (The Appearance of Venus: Its Importance ). Accessed Oct. 7, 2006〕
