Brit.

/ˌkrɪptə(ʊ)ˈzəʊən/,

/ˌkrɪptə(ʊ)ˈzəʊɒn/, U.S.

/ˌkrɪptəˈzoʊən/

Inflections: Plural cryptozoa.

Forms: 1800s– cryptozoon, 1800s– cryptozoön.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: crypto- comb. form, -zoon comb. form.

Etymology: < crypto- comb. form + -zoon comb. form, after scientific Latin Cryptozoön, genus name (see quot. 1883). Compare cryptozoa n.Scientific Latin Cryptozoon had earlier been proposed as the name of a genus of beetles (L. W. Schaufuss 1882, in Ann. de la Soc. Entomol. de France 2 47).

Geology.

A supposed reef-forming fossil of Cambrian or Precambrian age having a laminated, discoid structure and subsequently shown to be the remains of colonies of cyanobacteria (stromatolites). Also (in form Cryptozoon) as a genus name.
