hamulus
''Hamus'', ''hamulus'', and words derived from them are morphological or anatomical terms in various branches of biology. They describe structures functioning as, or in the form of, hooks or hooklets.
==Derived terms==
The terms are directly from Latin, in which ''hamus'' means "hook". The plural is ''hami''.
''Hamulus'' is the diminutive – hooklet or little hook. The plural is ''hamuli''.
Adjectives are ''hamate'' and ''hamulate'', as in "hamulate wing-coupling", in which the wings of certain insects in flight are joined by hooking hamuli on one wing, into folds on a matching wing. ''Hamulate'' can also mean "having hamuli". The terms ''hamose'', ''hamular'', ''hamous'' and ''hamiform'' also have been used to mean "hooked", or "hook-shaped". Terms such as ''hamate'' that do not indicate a diminutive usually refer particularly to a hook at the tip, whereas diminutive terms such as ''hamulose'' tend to imply that something is beset with small hooks.
