Remarks 'axillary', from 'axilla', i.e., armpit, diminutive of Latin 'acsla, ala', i.e., wing (p. 45, Ref. 11979); 'black', from Old English 'blæc', of obscure origins but probably related to Latin 'flagrare' and Greek 'phlégein', i.e., burn, from Indo-European 'phleg-, bhleg-' (p. 65 in Ref. 11979). Also Ref. 9303, 56807, 83882, 90062, 93840, 95632.
