Dictyoxylonn.

Brit.

/ˌdɪktɪˈɒksᵻlɒn/, U.S.

/ˌdɪktiˈɑksəˌlɑn/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Dictyoxylon.

Etymology: < scientific Latin Dictyoxylon, former genus name (W. C. Williamson in the source of quot. 1869) < ancient Greek δικτυο- (see dictyo- comb. form) + ξύλον wood (see xylo- comb. form).

Palaeontology.

Originally: †any of various Carboniferous seed ferns of the former genus Dictyoxylon, occurring in the European coal measures as fossil stems having longitudinally-oriented bands of fibres in the outer cortex, often forming an interconnecting network of strands (obsolete). In later use: (attributive) designating this type of cortical structure.
