Shriveled, withered, or dried up; having lost freshness, moisture, or vitality.
From Latin emarcidus (e- 'completely' + marcidus 'withered,' from marcere 'to wither'). This botanical and general descriptive term emphasizes the complete loss of moisture and vitality.
A pressed flower in a book is emarcid—completely dried and shriveled—but the word itself has become emarcid too, almost extinct from modern English! You're unlikely to hear it outside of botanical or literary contexts.
