Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Formed from the English prefix non- (meaning 'not') combined with indigenous, which derives from the Latin indigenus (native, born within), ultimately from Old Latin indu (within) and gignere (to beget). The combined term emerged in scientific and ecological contexts during the late 19th century to describe species or populations introduced to an environment from elsewhere.
