Resembling or relating to horses, or belonging to the horse family (Equidae).
From Latin 'equus' (horse) + Greek '-oid' (resembling, having the form of). This biological term emerged in the 19th century.
Scientists use 'equoid' to describe creatures that look horse-like but aren't quite horses—like early evolutionary ancestors that had different numbers of toes, helping us understand how modern horses evolved.
