Really? Nothing like it (or even "trophion") in Lewis & Short. SemperBlotto (talk) 10:34, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
- Meaning of that word is on Wikipedia. Word "trophion" is latinized word of τροφεῖον, as it is written on that page. I found word τροφεῖον here, here and here. There are also 47 results which have word τροφεῖον and 155 results which have word trophion in Google Books. Thank you. — This unsigned comment was added by 37.244.211.127 (talk).
- Erm, [1] [2] [3]. Of course I can't read any of that. Renard Migrant (talk) 11:56, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

- Yes but to be clear, the citations I linked to are apparently in running Latin text. But without being able to read Latin, I can't say what they mean (if they mean anything). Renard Migrant (talk) 13:07, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
- The running Latin text meaning doesn't seem to have much to do with the taxon. I was just trying to provide clues to words that would facilitate discrimination between taxon and other possible citations. DCDuring TALK 14:08, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

- Cited. @Renard Migrant: your first cite was good (although from the same book as one of mine), but the other two were mentions, not uses. Curiously, one of them seems to claim that there is a book by Georg Pictorius called Zootrophion, which I cannot find any evidence of. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 15:44, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
