Herpetotomy

/ˌhɜrpɪˈtɑtəmi/ noun

Definition

The anatomical dissection and study of reptiles, or the branch of anatomy dealing with reptile structure.

Etymology

From 'herpeto-' (reptile) combined with '-tomy' (cutting or dissection, from Greek 'tome'). This term parallels anatomy, osteotomy, and other dissection-based studies.

Kelly Says

The '-tomy' suffix appears in many medical terms—vasectomy, lobotomy, appendectomy—all describing surgical cuts, but herpetotomy specifically means studying reptile anatomy through dissection!
