 Black Martians are a technologically advanced race that resemble Earthly humans with jet-black skin and eyes.  Black Martians are generally genetically compatible with Earthly humans, and the subterranean [[Dero]]s may have been the result of interbreeding between Black Martians and Earthly proto-humans in some ancient epoch of Earthly history.

 Others of their kind left on Mars would evolve in parallel, adapted for the dying Martian surface, similarly modified for use there as a labor force and biological "life boat" for use of the Horned Martians against the ravages of their dying world, where in time the pitiful savage slaves would successfully rose up and overthrow their Horned masters, to eventually evolve into the humanoid races of Mars.

 "Barsoomians" are nearly-extinct native inhabitants of Mars (which they once called "Barsoom" until they abandoned the waking world; the name today is used mainly to describe the Martian Dreamland).  Most of these native Martians closely resemble Earthly humans (and indeed were either modified and brought to prehistoric Earth by Horned Martians to populate that young world with vessels for the Horned Martians to possess, or modified primitive humans were brought to a dying Mars by Horned Martians to serve as slaves), but Barsoomian Martians come in several varieties:

 Green Martians are 12-15 feet (3.7 to 4.6m) tall, are a nomadic, savage, warlike people with little concept of friendship or love, and a general tendency to delight in torture and conquest.  They have green skin, independently-moving eyes mounted on the sides of their heads, two arms and two legs, as well as two intermediary limbs that they can use as either arms or legs at will.  They wander between the ruins of dead Martian civilizations where they set up temporary dwellings, manufacture their own edged weapons, and raid other Martian civilizations for more advanced technology.  They are said to have been the result of an ancient biological experiment which went awry, meant to produce a breed of intelligent Martians who could survive on the cold, desiccated, post-apocalyptic Mars.
