placoidadj.n.

Brit.

/ˈplakɔɪd/, U.S.

/ˈplæˌkɔɪd/

Origin: A borrowing from Greek, combined with an English element. Etymons: Greek πλακ- , πλάξ , -oid suffix.

Etymology: < ancient Greek πλακ-, πλάξ flat plate, tablet (see placo- comb. form) + -oid suffix. Compare French Placoïdes , plural noun ( L. Agassiz Recherches sur les poissons fossiles(1833) I. p. xxiv; > scientific Latin Placoidei , order name (1871 or earlier)). Compare slightly earlier placoidean adj., placoidean n.

A. adj.

1. Zoology.

a. Designating a type of fish scale resembling a small tooth with a broad flat base, made of dentine with a pointed backward projection of enamel, as forming the dermal armour of cartilaginous fishes. Cf. ctenoid adj. 1, ganoid adj. 1.
