Etymology

From New Latin Anoura, Anura (“name of the order of amphibians”), or from French Anoures (“name of a family of amphibians”) (from Latin an-, from Ancient Greek ἀν- (an-), from Proto-Indo-European *n̥- (“un-, not”) + Ancient Greek οὐρά (ourá, “tail”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₁órsos (“backside, buttocks”)) + -n, from Latin -ānus (“of or pertaining to”, adjective-forming suffix), from -nus, from Proto-Indo-European *-nós (adjective-forming suffix).
