- If you're looking for the species of the symbiont Dax, you'll want Trill.
Dax's species is an Alpha and Beta Quadrant species seen on Starfleet starships.
They have some enhanced facial features, though their most distinguishing characteristic is their large, unusually shaped feet, making it impossible for them to wear the same footwear as most humanoids. This species apparently does not have footwear of its own either, making their feet that much most noticeable. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Note
Given that Chekov was initially unaware of Dax's unusually-shaped feet, his people are presumably not common within the Federation and therefore likely not members. Another possiblity is that Chekov confused him for a different species with similiar facial features.
