Bearing or producing disks or disk-shaped structures.
From Latin discus (disk) + -gerous (bearing or producing), a less common variant of -ferous with the same meaning, used in technical biological descriptions.
Latin gives scientists multiple ways to say 'disk-bearing'—disciferous, discigerous, and disciferous all exist because botanists and zoologists needed precision in hundreds of languages!
