Dimorphs

/ˈdaɪmɔrfz/ noun

Definition

Plural of dimorph; multiple organisms or substances existing in two distinct forms.

Etymology

From Greek 'di-' (two) plus 'morph' (form) plus English plural '-s'. The plural form follows standard English noun pluralization.

Kelly Says

In ant colonies, you might find dimorphs where workers come in two completely different sizes—major workers and minor workers—each specialized for different jobs, which is more efficient than having just one size for every task.
