Acheilous

/eɪˈkaɪləs/ adjective

Definition

Lacking lips or possessing no mouth parts resembling lips, used in zoology and anatomy.

Etymology

From Greek 'a-' (without) plus 'cheilos' (lip) with the suffix '-ous' (full of, characterized by), meaning 'characterized by the absence of lips'.

Kelly Says

Many invertebrates are technically acheilous since they have completely different mouth structures than mammals—this word helps scientists describe the incredible diversity of how animals actually function without our assumptions.
