/ˌmɑnəməˈstaɪlɪk/

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

Etymology: < scientific Latin Monimostylica, group name (H. Stannius in C. T. E. Siebold & H. Stannius Handb. der Zootomie (ed. 2, 1856) II. 45, applied to reptiles of this type) < ancient Greek μόνιμος stable, stationary (see monimolite n.) + στῦλος pillar, support (see styloid adj.) + scientific Latin -ica , neuter plural of -icus -ic suffix.

Zoology.

Designating or relating to a vertebrate skull in which the quadrate bone is immovably fixed to the squamosal, so that the lower jaw cannot be protruded. Contrasted with streptostylic adj. at strepto- comb. form .

1883 E. D. Cope in Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia i. 97 I added to the definition of the order [sc. Dinosauria], ‘attached quadrate’; and later ‘os-quadratum articulated with its suspensorium by suture’, thus placing these reptiles in the monimostylicate series.]

1888 Philos. Trans. 1887 (Royal Soc.) B. 178 32 The struthian form [of the copulatory organ] comes nearest to that of the monimostylic Reptiles.

1901 Nature 14 Mar. 462/1 The ancestors of the Reptilia proper..possessed a skull with numerous membrane bones roofing over the temporal and occipital regions and with an immovable quadrate, that they belonged, in fact, to the type designated by Cope as monimostylic.

1930 E. S. Goodrich Stud. on Struct. & Devel. Vertebr. vii. 432 The fully monimostylic condition is established in the Chelonia and Crocodilia.

1964 Jrnl. Morphol. 114 3/2 Monimostylic means only that the quadrate is fixed in position on the brain case and not that the skull is akinetic.

1991 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) B. 332 329/1 Crocodilians have been entirely akinetic and monimostylic from the beginning.
