Definition
A type of protein or chemical substance found in or derived from beetle elytra (wing covers), though the term is rare in modern scientific use.
Etymology
From elytra with the suffix '-in', a common chemical and biological suffix used to name proteins, alkaloids, and other natural substances extracted from organisms.
Kelly Says
The '-in' suffix created hundreds of scientific terms for substances—insulin, melanin, keratin—so elytrin would theoretically be a protein from beetle wings, though modern scientists usually don't use this term anymore.
