1775 J. Jenkinson Linnæus' Generic & Specific Descr. Brit. Plants Gloss. 252/2 Foliole, pl. Folioles, a little leaf, one of the single leaves, which together compose a compound leaf.

1805 tr. K. L. Willdenow Princ. Bot. & Veg. Physiol. i. 44 The little leaf, foliolum, the little leaves that make part of a digitated, quinate, &c. leaf, are called foliola or leaflets.

1895 New. Educ. June 49/2 A compound leaf, having seven parts; each of these parts is called a leaflet, or little leaf.

2004 K. Rushforth Easy Tree Guide 99 The leaf is divided into a number (almost always an odd number) of leaflets or little leaves, which arise successively along the stalk.

2. Chiefly U.S. A plant condition characterized by reduced leaf size; esp. (a) a condition of fruit trees caused by zinc deficiency; (b) (more fully littleleaf disease) a fungal infection of pine trees.
