53 2. When the final member of the compound is a sub- 

 stantive of the third declension with the stem ending in any 

 consonant except -v, -p, -8, or -e? (and occasionally also 

 even then), the compound adjective (1) usually follows the 

 same analogy and ends in -09, masc. and fern., and -ov, 



5 4 neut., or (2) retains the third declensional form of the final 

 member: 



(r) ev-aaptc-os (crdp^, stem crapic-, jlesh), incarnate; 



a-'Xpcop.aT- ? (%/aw/ia, stem xpwp.aT-, color) , colorless;

55 (a) When the final member is a neuter noun ending in 

 -p<a (stem ending in -par-) , the compound adjective properly 

 ends in-par- 0-?, as in the rule just given, or (as those words 

 not infrequently in composition shorten the stem from -paro- 

 to -po- 1 ) in -/X05, or we may have both the longer and 

 shorter forms side by side; e. g. 



Tpi-adopaT-o-s and rpi-crap.-o-'i, three-bodied ; 



a-acapaT-o-^ and a-acop-o-s, bodiless; 



a-8eppa.T-o-<; and a-Sep/t-0-5, skinless; 



a-xpd)paT-o<; and a-^/3&)/x-o-?, colorless. 



Linnaeus has forms to which the prototypes would be avd>- 

 o-TO/x-0-5, TroXv-vrip-o- 1 ;, / %pvcro-aTi<yp-o-<;, ^pvcro-arop-o-^, 

 alpo-<TTop-o-<;, yovo-CTTtyp-o-';, apyupo-arop-o-'!.

 ypafi/iTJ,-^?, from which we have ypafi/io-eidyj?, etc.; cf. anep[io-@o\lu> y
