Corniculate, an Anglicisation of the Latin diminutives corniculata, corniculatum, and corniculatus, describes an object possessing hornlike extensions.[1] 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. Likewise Oxalis corniculata (creeping woodsorrel) is named for its two erect capsules, which resemble little horns,[2][3] and the bird's-foot trefoil Lotus corniculatus[4] and goat's horn mangrove Aegiceras corniculatum[5] are named for their horn-shaped fruits.
