Producing or bearing ascidiums (sac-like structures); having ascidian characteristics or structures.
From Latin 'ascidium' (sac) combined with '-ferous' (bearing or producing), literally meaning 'bearing ascidiums.'
Plants with ascidiferous structures include tropical pitcher plants that evolved sac-like leaves to trap insects—it's the same word structure used for both marine animals and carnivorous plants!
