amphistomous

1. (zoology) Having a sucker or opening at each extremity.Examples: "Some entozoa are amphistomous."; "They would even strip off the amphistomous worms which literally live in the stomachs of all cattle in this region, and, without more ado, put them raw into their mouths by the handful."; "In many a pylom occurs also at the aboral pole, so that the shell, perforated by a mouth at both poles of the principal axis, acquires an amphistomous character."not-comparable

2. (botany) Having stomata on both surfaces of the leaf.Examples: "Adaxial and abaxial surfaces of three taxa of the Acutae group in the Pacific Northwest (C. aquatilis, C. lenticularis, and C. nebrascensis) are not differentiated (the amphistomous condition) ."; "For most amphistomous leaves, the correct value for g_(lw) is between those given by Equations 11.24 and 11.25 (Moreshet et al., 1968)."; "Parkhurst et al. (1988) showed that gradients of more than 50 μbar CO₂ are common in amphistomous leaves of C₃ plants."not-comparable
