different between aphid vs apid

aphid

English

Etymology

New Latin aphides, coined by Swedish botanist Carolus Linnaeus in 1758. His inspiration for the name remains unclear. OED suggests a connection to Ancient Greek ??????? (apheid?s, unsparing, lavishly borrowed) in reference to the insects' voracity or rapid rate of production, from ?- (a-, not) + ???????? (pheídomai, to spare, be thrifty, be merciful), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *b?eyd- (to split).
