Admiral \Ad"mi*ral\, n. [OE. amiral, admiral, OF. amiral,
ultimately fr. Ar. am[imac]r-al-bahr commander of the sea;
Ar. am[imac]r is commander, al is the Ar. article, and
am[imac]r-al, heard in different titles, was taken as one
word. Early forms of the word show confusion with L.
admirabilis admirable, fr. admirari to admire. It is said to
have been introduced into Europe by the Genoese or Venetians,
in the 12th or 13th century. Cf. {Ameer}, {Emir}.]
1. A naval officer of the highest rank; a naval officer of
high rank, of which there are different grades. The chief
gradations in rank are admiral, vice admiral, and rear
admiral. The admiral is the commander in chief of a fleet
or of fleets.
[1913 Webster]

2. The ship which carries the admiral; also, the most
considerable ship of a fleet.
[1913 Webster]

Like some mighty admiral, dark and terrible, bearing
down upon his antagonist with all his canvas
straining to the wind, and all his thunders roaring
from his broadsides. --E. Everett.
[1913 Webster]

3. (Zool.) A handsome butterfly ({Pyrameis Atalanta}) of
Europe and America. The larva feeds on nettles.
[1913 Webster]

{Admiral shell} (Zool.), the popular name of an ornamental
