Endothermous

/ˌɛndoʊˈθɜrməs/ adjective

Definition

Having the characteristic of being endothermic; capable of generating and maintaining internal body heat.

Etymology

From 'endo-' (within) and Greek 'therme' (heat) with the adjective suffix '-ous', an older or more formal variant of 'endothermic' primarily found in technical and scientific literature.

Kelly Says

This is an older scientific term that you might find in vintage biology textbooks—while 'endothermic' is more common today, 'endothermous' reminds us how scientific vocabulary evolves as disciplines refine their terminology.
