1889 H. Colley March in Trans. Lancs. & Cheshire Antiquarian Soc. 7 166 The forms of ornament demonstrably due to structure require a name... Those taken from animals are called zoomorphs, and those from plants phyllomorphs.

1895 A. C. Haddon Evol. Art 126 The terms ‘zoomorph’ and ‘phyllomorph’ have been employed for the representation in art of plants and animals.

1908 Jrnl. Royal Anthropol. Inst. 38 405 This is elaborately carved.., the side designs being apparently phyllomorphs and those of the ridge [of the roof] being largely made up of dragons in various attitudes.

2. Botany. Each of the structural units which form the vegetative body of certain stemless plants of the genus Streptocarpus and other genera of the family Gesneriaceae.

These plants are formed by the repetition of a unit of mixed stem-leaf nature, which we call a phyllomorph.

1984 Systematic Bot. 9 401/1 In some species [of the genus Monophyllaea]..the plant is built up of several macrocotyledonary phyllomorphs.
