In antiquity, the Beta Portilin system was devastated by the neural parasites, and may have been the first place targeted.[1][2]

In the novelization by James Blish, Beta Portilin was instead called the "Orion complex," and was revealed to be the homeworld of the neural parasites and the site of a collective intelligence that controlled all of the offworld parasites; the species was eradicated when the Enterprise destroyed the planet in an orbital bombardment.
