Definition
Having the color, texture, or appearance of a chestnut; reddish-brown in color.
Etymology
From Latin 'castaneus,' derived from 'castanea' (chestnut), with the suffix '-ous' meaning full of or characterized by.
Kelly Says
This is a technical botanical term—when scientists describe a bird's plumage or a seed coat as 'castaneous,' they're painting a precise color picture using Latin that everyone in the scientific community understands.
