Corniculate
Corniculate, an Anglicisation of the Latin diminutives corniculata, corniculatum, and corniculatus, describes an object possessing hornlike extensions. The root is Latin ''cornu'' = "horn". The term is used to describe the shape of the corniculate cartilages of the larynx. The horned puffin (''Fratercula corniculata'') is named for its distinctive horn-like coloration.
