Etymology

e- (prefix forming adjectives with the sense of lacking something) +? squamulose; squamulose is derived from New Latin squ?mul?sus (“squamulose”), from Latin squamula (“small scales”) (diminutive of squ?ma (“scale of a fish or reptile; item shaped like a scale, flake”)) + -?sus (suffix meaning ‘full of, prone to’). The English word is analysable as e- +? squamula +? -ose.
