habitus

Etymology
From, from. The plural habiti is a pseudo-Latin innovation in English, as the plural of the Latin noun is in fact habitūs, with lengthened vowel, the word being an u-stem. This is reflected by the English plural habitus which is occasionally encountered. (The form habitī does exist in Latin as well, but it is irrelevant as it is the plural form of the participle habitus -- and not of the noun habitus which is the source of this English term.)

Noun

 * 1)  habitude; mode of life; bearing.
 * 2)  General appearance.
 * 3)  habit
 * 4)  the general shape and appearance of the body, usually with reference to weight, adipose distribution, posture, and gait; most often called by the collocation body habitus.
 * 5)  The lifestyle, values, dispositions and expectations of particular social groups that are acquired through the activities and experiences of everyday life.
 * 6)  The liturgical clothing of monks, nuns and the clerical community, metaphorically referring to the religious mode of life.
 * 1)  The liturgical clothing of monks, nuns and the clerical community, metaphorically referring to the religious mode of life.

Usage notes

 * The plural is quite rare.
 * The main distinction between usage in botany versus zoology is that a plant's habit is a more or less technical statement of its growth form and structure (e.g. liana vs. tree vs. acaulescent herbaceous), while in zoology, the habitus is often not even qualified or described other than to serve as a more technical statement that the taxon resembles another. This is especially common for Hexapoda and Arachnida.
