A Grammatical Dictionary of Botanical Latin

 
ullus, ulla, ullum (irregular adj.A): any, anyone, anything; cf. nullus, nulla, nullum (irregular adj.A): no, none, not any; lacking, absent;
        singular                                plural    
      m.     f.    n.                    m.      f.     n.   
Nom. ullus  ulla  ullum                 ulli    ullae  ulla   
Gen.     ullius                         ullorum ullarum ullorum   
Acc. ullum ullam ullum                  ullos  ullas  ulla   
Dat.     ulli                                   ullis   
Abl. ullo  ulla  ullo                           ullis
- [fungus] sapor vix ullus (S&A), the taste scarcely any.

- sine ulla dubitatione, without any doubt (ulla = abl. sg.).

- species notis variis non ulli alii ordini accedens, species not by various characters resembling any other order (ulli = dat. sg.).

- planta, ut Jung. minutissima descripta et delineata, sine dubio ullo est J. inconspicua, secundum specimen ipsum originale Sowerbyi asservatum, (Lindberg), the plant, described and drawn as Jungermannia minutissima, without any doubt, is J. inconspicua, following the original preserved specimen of Sowerby itself.

- [fungi] sphaerulae parvae, fragiliuscula, vetustiorum paucae dimidiatae: ostiolum vix ullum, ni passim rudimentum eius aliquod videre tibi videaris (S&A), the sphaerules are small, somewhat more fragile, a few of the older ones halved: there is scarcely any ostiole, except that here and there you may think to yourself to see some vestige of it.

- [lichen] aegre cum ullo alio commiscendus, nam stlpes apotheciorum scaber (granulis squamuliformibus thallinls deorsum decumbentibus vel adpressis). (Nyl.), with difficulty to be mixed up with any other [sc. lichen], for the stipe of the apothecia is roughened (with squamuliform thalline granules, on the back decumbent or appressed).

NOTE: these are irregular A adjectives because the genitive sg. ends in -ius and the dative sg. in -i. Nullus, nulla, nullum, q.v. (irregular A adjective): no, none, not any.

NOTE: not to be confused with the Latin noun suffix -ulus,-i (s.m.II), -ula,-ae (s.f.I), -ulum,-i (s.n.II); or the Latin adj. suffix -ulus,-a, -um (adj.A).

 

A work in progress, presently with preliminary A through R, and S, and with S (in part) through Z essentially completed.
