The enlarged central nervous system and supplementary neural implants found in this Sectoid variant suggests capabilities unlike anything we've previously encountered. Further study may reveal ways in which we can use these capabilities to enhance our soldiers' protection against their attacks. |

Notes
- Research completion allows construction of the facility Psionics Lab.
- On the Enemy Within DLC it also allows to build the Mimic Beacon item at Engineering and Neural Feedback Gene Mod at the Genetics Lab.
- Research benefits from South America's continental bonus "We Have Ways..."
