Colin Purrington<p>Frass, insect excrement, is a word derived from the German verb "fressen" (devour, to eat as a beast does). The Oxford English Dictionary has the first instance of frass in 1854, by the entomologist Henry Stainton. He published a description of Stigmella salicis that year (see leaf mine pic via link), so perhaps he needed a word to describe the excrement produced by the larva. I'm not sure whether Germans were already using Fraß for that meaning (anyone?). <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/frass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>frass</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/insect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insect</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/etymology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>etymology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/entomology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>entomology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/german" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>german</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/lepidoptera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lepidoptera</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/inaturalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inaturalist</span></a> <a href="https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/247952046" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">inaturalist.org/observations/2</span><span class="invisible">47952046</span></a></p>
