cryptogamn.

Brit.

/ˈkrɪptə(ʊ)ɡam/, U.S.

/ˈkrɪptəˌɡæm/

Forms: 1700s–1800s cryptogame, 1800s– cryptogam.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French cryptogame.

Etymology: < French cryptogame, adjective and noun (1748 or earlier; also in broader use designating any organism in which the reproductive parts are concealed or difficult to discern) < crypto- crypto- comb. form + -game (see -gamous comb. form), after cryptogamie Cryptogamia n. Compare scientific Latin cryptogamus (1763).

Botany.

Originally: a plant of the former taxonomic division Cryptogamia (Cryptogamia n.), comprising plants that have no true flowers and do not produce seeds, reproducing instead by spores, including ferns, mosses, algae, lichens, and all fungi; frequently contrasted with phanerogam. In later use: esp. (more fully vascular cryptogam) any member of this group resembling a seed plant in having a vascular system, which comprises ferns and their allies (e.g. horsetails and clubmosses); cf. non-vascular adj. 2.
