cockchafer
語源
From cock (“male bird”) + chafer (“beetle”). The Oxford English Dictionary speculates that the name may relate to a resemblance of antennae to coxcomb, or to the beetle’s size.[1] Compare French hanneton (“cockchafer”), ultimately from Frankish *hano (“rooster”). Attested from the late seventeenth century.[1]
