Definition
Describing fish or structures that have spiny or thornlike fins.
Etymology
From Greek 'akantha' (thorn) + 'pteron' (fin) + Latin suffix '-ous' (full of). This adjectival form describes the characteristic feature of having prominent spines in the fins.
Kelly Says
The suffix '-ous' meaning 'full of' appears in thousands of English words, and when combined with ancient Greek terms, it creates a scientific vocabulary that's instantly recognizable to biologists worldwide.
