Yeppers. They, as the rest, were on computer control. I did take temporary control of them to see what was up, and it looks like they may have run into another race quite early in the game, which caused them to flip modes before they got any colonization under way. They had a sizeable fleet, but were not producing colony ships (hence my assumption above).
On a side note, due to the Zorian cockroach problem, I am left with but a single remaining option to dislodge them; Stellar Nucleonic Torpedoes.
