AphidesAphides Aph"i*des, n. pl. (Zo["o]l.)
See Aphis. AphidesAphis A"phis, n.; pl. Aphides. [NL.] (Zo["o]l.)
A genus of insects belonging to the order Hemiptera and
family Aphid[ae], including numerous species known as plant
lice and green flies.
Note: Besides the true males and females, there is a race of
wingless asexual individuals which have the power of
producing living young in rapid succession, and these
in turn may produce others of the same kind for several
generations, before sexual individuals appear. They
suck the sap of plants by means of a tubular proboscis,
and owing to the wonderful rapidity of their
reproduction become very destructive to vegetation.
Many of the Aphid[ae] excrete honeydew from two tubes
near the end of the body. Bisulphide
Bisulphide Bi*sul"phide, n. [Pref. bi- + sulphide.] (Chem.)
A sulphide having two atoms of sulphur in the molecule; a
disulphide, as in iron pyrites, FeS2; -- less frequently
called bisulphuret.
DisulphideDisulphide Di*sul"phide (?; 104), n. [Pref. di- + sulphide.]
(Chem.)
A binary compound of sulphur containing two atoms of sulphur
in each molecule; -- formerly called disulphuret. Cf.
Bisulphide. ethyl disulphideThialol Thi"al*ol, n. [Thio- + alcohol + L. oleum oil.]
(Chem.)
A colorless oily liquid, (C2H5)2S2, having a strong garlic
odor; -- called also ethyl disulphide. By extension, any
one of the series of related compounds. hydrogen phosphidePhosphine Phos"phine, n. (Chem.)
A colorless gas, PH3, analogous to ammonia, and having a
disagreeable odor resembling that of garlic. Called also
hydrogen phosphide, and formerly, phosphureted hydrogen.
Note: It is the most important compound of phosphorus and
hydrogen, and is produced by the action of caustic
potash on phosphorus. It is spontaneously inflammable,
owing to impurities, and in burning produces peculiar
vortical rings of smoke. Hydrogen sulphide Hydrogen oxide, a chemical name for water, H?O.
Hydrogen sulphide, a colorless inflammable gas, H2S,
having the characteristic odor of bad eggs, and found in
many mineral springs. It is produced by the action of
acids on metallic sulphides, and is an important chemical
reagent. Called also sulphureted hydrogen. HydrosulphideHydrosulphide Hy`dro*sul"phide, n. (Chem.)
One of a series of compounds, derived from hydrogen sulphide
by the replacement of half its hydrogen by a base or basic
radical; as, potassium hydrosulphide, KSH. The
hydrosulphides are analogous to the hydrates and include the
mercaptans. MonosulphideMonosulphide Mon`o*sul"phide, n. [Mono- + sulphide.] (Chem.)
A sulphide containing one atom of sulphur, and analogous to a
monoxide; -- contrasted with a polysulphide; as, galena is
a monosulphide. Oxysulphide
Oxysulphide Ox`y*sul"phide, n. (Chem.)
A ternary compound of oxygen and sulphur.
PersulphidePersulphide Per*sul"phide, n. (Chem.)

of the same elements; as, iron pyrites is a persulphide; --
formerly called persulphuret. Phosphide

A binary compound of phosphorus.
Polysulphide
Polysulphide Pol`y*sul"phide, n. [Poly- + sulphide.] (Chem.)
A sulphide having more than one atom of sulphur in the
molecule; -- contrasted with monosulphide.
Protosulphide
Protosulphide Pro`to*sul"phide, n. [Proto- + sulphide.]
(Chem.)
That one of a series of sulphides of any element which has
the lowest proportion of sulphur; a sulphide with but one
atom of sulphur in the molecule.
