The word ‘Arista’ refers to a bristle-like form. It is commonly used with reference to a structure found on the antennae of certain insects (like flies) or the hair-like appendage on the seed or flower of some grasses and cereals. ‘Arista’ is of Greek origin and often means ‘the best’ or ‘excellence’.
