The Kauronians were a sapient race that originated on the planet of Kauron, situated within the Meram sector found in the Outer Rim Territories. It is known that in 0 BBY, multiple Kauronian individuals engaged in bounty hunting were located on the planet Tatooine. At this point in time, the Rodian pursuer of bounties known as Greedo observed a group of them as they went into Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina, which was located in the Mos Eisley urban area.
Kauronians made their debut in "A Hunter's Fate: Greedo's Tale," a short story from 1995 penned by Tom and Martha Veitch. This story was included in the Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina collection.
