Plural of emyd; multiple freshwater turtles belonging to the family Emydidae.
Regular English plural of emyd, formed by adding -s. Follows standard modern English pluralization despite the Greek scientific origin.
In modern English science writing, Greek and Latin taxonomic terms are pluralized with English -s rather than Latin endings—so 'emyds' instead of 'emydes' is becoming more common, showing how living languages evolve even in specialized fields!
