Apiculi

/əˈpɪkjʊˌlaɪ/ noun

Definition

Plural of apiculus; small pointed projections or tips found on plant or animal structures.

Etymology

Latin plural of apiculus (small tip), from apex (peak). The Latin plural form -i is retained in scientific terminology.

Kelly Says

Scientists use this plural when describing multiple tiny points across a structure—imagine a leaf edge covered with dozens of little apiculi, like nature's tiny saws!
