Definition
A variant botanical term describing seeds where the endosperm is positioned externally rather than enclosed around the embryo.
Etymology
From exendosperm using the adjectival suffix -ous. This is the -ous variant of 'exendospermic,' showing how botanical Latin offers multiple adjectival forms.
Kelly Says
Botanists use -ic and -ous forms interchangeably (aquatic/aqueous, aromatic/aromous) because they inherited this flexibility from Latin and Greek. Nature doesn't care which suffix you use—precision does.
