Cryptogamian.

Brit.

/ˌkrɪptə(ʊ)ˈɡamɪə/, U.S.

/ˌkrɪptəˈɡæmiə/

Forms: also with lower-case initial.

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

Etymology: < scientific Latin Cryptogamia ( Linnaeus Genera Plantarum (1737) 320) < crypto- crypto- comb. form + ancient Greek γάμος marriage (see -gam comb. form) + scientific Latin -ia -ia suffix¹; compare Hellenistic Greek ἀγαμία agamy n. Compare French cryptogamie (1741 or earlier), German Cryptogamie (1750 or earlier; also in sense ‘cryptogamy’).Like the names of other Linnaean classes and orders, Cryptogamia was originally used as a singular noun; in later use however, the English word has usually been taken as plural, by analogy with classes and orders of the animal kingdom (e.g. Vertebrata , Mammalia , Carnivora ) which are plural nouns (compare etymological note at Phanerogamia n.). For a Latin plural form Cryptogamiae compare: 1818 H. M. Williams tr. A. von Humboldt Personal Narr. Trav. III. 149 Some natural philosophers..think, that the subterranean plants..are cryptogamiæ of our forests.

Botany. Now chiefly historical.

Plants belonging to the former taxonomic division Cryptogamia, which formed one of the two major divisions of plants (cf. Phanerogamia n.) and comprised the cryptogams (in the broader sense). Also (in form Cryptogamia): this division.Originally Cryptogamia formed one of the 25 classes of the Linnaean system of plant classification, but it is no longer used as a taxonomic term.
