Grammatical gender Clypeomorus is a feminine noun from the Latin clipeus (shield) and morus (a mulberry tree ; probably in error for morum , i, a mulberry) [details]
Grammatical gender feminine, as correctly pointed out by Houbrick (1985), because the ending -morus (the mulberry tree) is a Latin noun of feminine gender; was wrongly treated as neuter by Jousseaume (1888) [details]
