单词 haplochromine
释义

haplochromineadj.n.

Brit. /ˌhaplə(ʊ)ˈkrəʊmʌɪn/, /ˌhaplə(ʊ)ˈkrəʊmiːn/, U.S. /ˌhæploʊˈkroʊmaɪn/, /ˌhæploʊˈkroʊmin/, /ˌhæpləˈkroʊmaɪn/, /ˌhæpləˈkroʊmin/
Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: Latin Haplochromis , -ine suffix1.
Etymology: < scientific Latin Haplochromis, genus name, originally coined as a subgenus of Chromis (F. Hilgendorf 1888, in Sitzungs-Bericht der Gesellschaft naturforschender Freunde zu Berlin 76; < Hellenistic Greek ἁπλο- haplo- comb. form + scientific Latin Chromis, genus name: see note) + -ine suffix1, after scientific Latin Haplochrominae, subfamily name (J. J. Hoedeman 1947, in J. J. Hoedeman & J. C. M. de Jong Encyclopaedie voor de Aquariumhouder (x.60.76) 4).Scientific Latin Chromis , genus name (Cuvier, 1814) derives < ancient Greek χρόμις , a sea fish, perhaps the meagre or the umbrina < an ablaut variant (o -grade) of the base of χρεμετίζειν to neigh, whinny ( < the same Indo-European base as Old Church Slavonic grĭměti to thunder; ultimately < the same Indo-European base as grame adj.) + -ις (see -id suffix2); apparently so called on account of the sound made by the fish.
A. adj.
Of or relating to the cichlid fish tribe Haplochromini, a diverse group of freshwater fishes, many of which are brightly coloured, found chiefly in the lakes of East Africa.
