释义

remipeden.adj.

Brit. /ˈrɛmᵻpiːd/, U.S. /ˈrɛməˌpid/
Forms: 1800s– remiped, 1800s– remipede.
Origin: A borrowing from French; partly modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymon: French rémipède.
Etymology: < French rémipède (P. A. Latreille in Nouveau dict. d'hist. nat. (1804) XXIV. 126/1) < classical Latin rēmipedus oar-footed (as epithet of web-footed birds, in a solitary attestation) < rēmus oar (see reme n.1) + pēd- , pēs foot (see -ped comb. form). In modern use, after scientific Latin Remipedia, class name (J. Yager 1981, in Jrnl. Crustacean Biol. 1 328). Compare scientific Latin Remipes , genus name of a crustacean (1804 in Latreille (see above); < post-classical Latin remipes oar-footed (4th cent.), alteration (after adjectives in -pēs : see -ped comb. form) of classical Latin rēmipedus ). Compare copepod n., pedireme n.
