            I have a little voice shouting "I know I know " from the back of my brain - if I recall it's one of the diffences between elephants and duck bill platypus. Aphids are more like elephants.

              My first thought was the same as BM's (because I have to clean my daughters lizard vivarium today)

              The only other word I can think of with 'vivi' in is vivisection...

              and in whch way are aphids akin to elephants????

                    ...........I was thinking along the same lines as muddled - vivi, as in vivisection ........

                    But prefer BM's take on it - much more cheerful...!!

                        Vivi like from vivacious - full of life, high spirited. So I think it is something to do with life. The parus part from my old latin lessons I believe has an association with reproduction. Not a word I've come across before. I would guess at a meaning of giving life or similar.

                              Never heard of it but my initial reaction is that it sounds like something to do with a viper or adder?
