Echinulate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Echinulate is an adjective describing the spiny, or "spiky" nature of some spores found in plants and fungi; an example is the auxiliary cell. The words derives from the same root as the prefix echino, meaning that the shape is similar to the porcupine (whose family name is Echinoprocta).
