Brit.

/dɪskə(ʊ)ˈɡlɒsɪd/, U.S.

/ˌdɪskoʊˈɡlɑsəd/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element. Etymons: Latin Discoglossidae , -id suffix².

Etymology: < scientific Latin Discoglossidae, family name (A. Günther 1858, in Proc. Zool. Soc. 346); < Discoglossus , genus name ( C. A. Otth Beschreibung einer neuen europäischen Froschgattung (1837)); < ancient Greek δισκο- disco- comb. form + γλῶσσα tongue: see gloss n.¹) + classical Latin -idae -id suffix³): see -id suffix².

Zoology.

A. adj.

Of or relating to a group of relatively primitive anuran amphibians (frogs and toads) having ribs in the adult and a rounded non-protrusible tongue; esp. of the family Discoglossidae. Cf. discoglossoid adj.The family Discoglossidae (sometimes called Alytidae) is now generally restricted to the painted frogs (genus Discoglossus) and midwife toads (genus Alytes) of Europe and North Africa. It formerly included other genera with primitive features now placed in other families (e.g. Ascaphus, Leiopelma, and Bombina).
