Monoecian.

Brit.

/mɒˈniːʃə/,

/məˈniːʃə/, U.S.

/məˈniʃə/

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

Etymology: < scientific Latin Monoecia, former class name ( Linnaeus Systema Naturæ (1735)) < ancient Greek μονο- mono- comb. form + οἶκος house (see oecist n.) + scientific Latin -ia -ia suffix¹. Compare later use of monoicus as a specific epithet (see monoic adj.). Compare French monoecie (1749). Compare Diœcia n., Triœcia n.

Botany. Now historical.

In the Linnaean artificial system: the twenty-first class of plants, comprising those which have the stamens and pistils (male and female organs) in separate flowers on the same plant. Also: an order comprising monoecious plants in the class Polygamia.
