Brit.

/ˈriəˌfaɪl/

Forms: see rheo- comb. form and -phile comb. form.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; perhaps modelled on a Russian lexical item, or perhaps modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: rheo- comb. form, -phile comb. form.

Etymology: < rheo- comb. form + -phile comb. form, after either Russian reofil ( L. Ivanov 1901, in Trudy presnovodnoj biologičeskoj stancii imperatorskogo Sankt-Peterburgskogo obščestva estestvoispytatelej I. 129; also as scientific Latin Reophilae, plural noun) or German rheophil (R. Lauterborn 1902, perhaps independently of Ivanov's use). Compare also French réophile (1919 or earlier).
