(n.pl., pronounced zoo-ben-el-ge-NOO-bee-unz) 1. hypothetical beings from (a planet circling) the star Zubenelgenubi (Alpha^2 Librae); 2. Any space alien of unknown provenance, especially those you fear will come here and abduct you; 3. A space alien as opposed to an immigrant sans papiers; 4. the make-believe creatures responsible for tickling or peek-a-booing infants and toddlers (as in, "here come the Zubenelgenubians!"). (the name comes from the old Arabic az-zuban al-janЁ±biyy "southern claw [of Scorpio]"---the Arab astronomers saw Libra as an extension of Scorpio).
