A biomimetic lifeform was an organism capable of biological mimicry, imitating other organisms or objects.
The Silver Blood from the "demon class" planet was classified as such an organism. (VOY: "Demon", "Course: Oblivion")
Biomimetic lifeforms may or may not include shapeshifter species such as the Founders or chameloids.
