I cannot pick up colonists from several species - is this a bug or a misunderstanding?

I have 5 races in my empire but only 2 appear in the list of choices in the screen shot below AND I cannot pickup people using an existing colony ship from 3 of the races. Initially I thought it was due to a virus outbreak but that ended. You can see the Teekan world I really want to colonize
from, but I can't get it work.

What is the Teekan population on the planet? Can't quite see it in the screenshot. To be able to load colonists, the planet must have more than 500M inhabitants + the number of colonists you will be loading. So for the early game colony ships, there needs to be 530M inhabitants of that race.

Oh thank you, that must be it. The Merturov virus must have decimated my population & I didn't know what the minimum number was to be able to pick up.
