† onychophorousadj.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on Latin lexical items. Etymons: onycho- comb. form, -phorous comb. form.

Etymology: < onycho- comb. form + -phorous comb. form, partly after scientific Latin Onychophori, former family name (F. A. Ritgen 1828, in Nova Acta Physico-Medica Academiae Caesareae Leopoldinae-Carolinae Naturae Curiosorum 14 261) and partly after scientific Latin Onychophora, phylum name (see onychophoran n. and adj.). Compare Hellenistic Greek ὀνυχοϕόρος carrying the nails, of the last phalanx of the finger. Compare French onychophore (1868 in Littré). N.E.D. (1903) gives the pronunciation as (ǫnikǫ·fŏrəs) /ɒnɪˈkɒfərəs/.

Zoology. Obsolete. rare. Apparently only attested in dictionaries or glossaries.

Having claws; spec. relating to or designating (a) pythonid snakes; (b) onychophorans.
