Etymology
editAlthough Humulus has more of an uncertain origin, Lupulus comes from the Latin word for wolf, lupus. Humulus is thought to originate from the Low-German word "humela," which means hop. [1]

The staminate flowers do not have petals, while the pistillate flowers’ petals completely over the fruit. The cones found on female plants are called “strobilil.” [2] The fruit of Humulus Lupulus is an achene. Lupulin secreting glands are concentrated on the fruit.
