sexuparan.

Brit.

/sɛkˈsjuːpərə/, U.S.

/sɛkˈsjupərə/

Inflections: Plural sexuparae, unchanged, (rare) sexupares.

Forms: 1800s– sexupara, 1900s– sexupare (rare).

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

Etymology: < scientific Latin sexupara (N. Cholodkowsky 1890, in Horae Societatis Entomologicae Rossicae 24 391) < classical Latin sexus (u -stem: see sex n.¹) + -para , feminine of -parus (see -parous comb. form). Compare French sexupare (1900 or earlier). Compare sexuale n.The use of sexupara as a plural (e.g. as in quot. 1918, and as listed in Cent. Dict. Suppl. (1909)) apparently arises from confusion with words reflecting Latin neuter plurals in -a (see -a suffix²).

Entomology.

In aphids and coccids: a sexuparous individual.
