A rare or obsolete term, possibly relating to something twisted together or a plant specimen resembling a gourd; exact meaning is uncertain.
Possibly from Latin concurvare (con- 'together' + curvare 'to bend') or influenced by cucurbit (a gourd-family plant). The etymology and even the existence of this word in standard English are questionable and may represent a hapax legomenon or printing error.
Concurbit is a phantom word haunting old dictionaries—researchers can't agree if it's a real term, a typographical error for 'cucurbit,' or a forgotten botanical classification, making it a perfect example of how word history includes mysteries and dead ends.
