Meaning of "zoophytological" in English

The term "zoophytological" pertains to the study of organisms that exhibit both animal and plant characteristics, commonly referred to as zoophytes. This field focuses on understanding the natural history, anatomical structure, and functioning of these unique organisms, often found in aquatic environments. Examples include certain types of corals and sponges, which possess qualities of both flora and fauna. Originally derived from Greek roots—'zoo' meaning animal and 'phyto' meaning plant—the word encapsulates a concept at the intersection of zoology and botany, exploring the blurred lines between these two life forms.
