A plant of the convolvulus family characterized by certain botanical features or a compound derived from such plants.
From convolvulus (Latin for twining vine) plus the suffix -ad, indicating a member of a plant family or group.
The suffix -ad in plant taxonomy creates names for whole families—like dryad for tree-nymphs in mythology. It's like calling all your relatives by a family name that describes what they do!
