Origin: Of unknown origin.

A growth regulator formerly applied to apples and other fruit in order to control the ripening process and to enhance the quality of the crop.Alar is a methylated hydrazide of succinic acid. Formula: C₆H₁₂N₂O₃.Alar was found to be a likely carcinogen and its use is now restricted to ornamental plants.A proprietary name in the United Kingdom.

alaradj.

Brit.

/ˈeɪlə/,

/ˈeɪlɑː/, U.S.

/ˈeɪlər/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin ālāris.

Etymology: < classical Latin ālāris of or consisting of auxiliary cavalry or other troops, in post-classical Latin also (in anatomy) of or relating to the axilla, axillary (when applied e.g. to a vein or nerve) (1571 or earlier), shaped like a wing (applied to bone, muscle, ligament, etc.) (1609 or earlier) < āla wing (see ala n.¹) + -āris -ar suffix¹. Compare earlier alary adj.

1. Anatomy and Medicine. Of a structure: shaped like a wing; pterygoid. Also (of the chest): appearing to have wings. Cf. ala n.¹ 1.

1791 W. Vaughan Expos. Princ. Anat. & Physiol. I. 224 The Great and Small Alar Ligaments. Such are two broad ligaments resembling wings.

1825 J. F. South Dissector's Man. (new ed.) 419 Between the lateral and the alar cartilages are small cartilaginous bodies.

1839–47 Todd's Cycl. Anat. & Physiol. III. 829/2 The alar bones..are in reality distinct elements of the cranium.

1896 H. A. Hare Pract. Diagnosis i. viii. 250 The most familiar of these is the so-called phthisical chest, which has been called the ‘alar chest’, because the scapulæ stand out from the back like wings.

1929 W. K. Gregory Our Face from Fish to Man ii. 167 The lateral or alar cartilages of the external nose represent a forward growth of the margins of the olfactory capsules.

1968 Brain 91 657 Further stability is given by the paired alar ligaments running from the dorso-lateral aspect of the dens to the medial surfaces of the occipital condyles.

2011 S. R. Baker Princ. Nasal Reconstruction xx. 486/1 Alar cartilages are not commonly modified during reconstruction of the nose.

2. Zoology. Of or relating to a wing or wings (of a bird or other animal). Cf. alary adj.

1792 J. Leslie tr. Comte de Buffon Nat. Hist. Birds III. 322 The entire length of the Hermit Ouzel is about seven inches and a half, its alar extent twelve.

1834 T. Nuttall Man. Ornithol. U.S. & Canada: Water Birds 266 The Skimmer is about 19 inches in length, the closed wings extend beyond the tail 4 inches: alar stretch 44 inches!

1860 R. W. Emerson Beauty in Conduct of Life (London ed.) 258 The bone or the quill of the bird gives the most alar strength with the least weight.

1874 E. Coues Birds Northwest 544 Audubon mentions one nearly ten feet in alar expanse.

1939 T. L. Green Pract. Animal Biol. i. 188 Their area is increased by the alar membranes at the shoulder and arm pit which can be seen by stretching the wings outwards.

1947 Ann. Entomol. Soc. Amer. 40 669 The wing venation is similar to that of Neocatocha from which it differs in lacking alar macrotrichia.

1999 Vanity Fair (N.Y.) Nov. 270/3 By 1952 the Urquharts had developed an ‘alar tag’, as they called it, that could be glued to the leading edge of a monarch's forewing and would not fall off or impede its flight.

3. Anatomy and Botany. Of or relating to the axilla (of the human body) or an axil (of a plant); = axillary adj.; (now rare). In later use also: designating the cells located at the basal angles of the leaf of a bryophyte. Cf. ala n.¹ 2a.
