Definition
Plural form of columella; multiple small column-like structures in biological specimens.
Etymology
The Latin plural of 'columella' (-ae ending indicates plural form in Latin-derived scientific terminology).
Kelly Says
Latin plurals are still the gold standard in biology—you'll see 'formulae,' 'larval,' and 'columellae' in scientific papers because scientists wanted their terms to feel timeless and universal.
