[a. Gr. ἐρυσίπελας (Hippocrates), of doubtful etymology. Commonly regarded as f. *ἔρυσι-ς reddening (:—OAryan *rudhti-s, f. root *reudh, whence Gr. ἐρυθρός red) + πελ- in πέλλα skin (cogn. with L. pellis and fell); but the formation appears abnormal. For the first element cf. ἐρυσῑ́βη red blight on corn.]
