Etymology
May derive from a Latin Io, with the I written over the o, placed at the end of an exclamation to mark it as such. The Io may either be an abbreviation for interiectiō(“interjection”), or else the interjection iō(“hey!”).[1] It expresses admiration in the sentence clause(s), in the Latin sense, of awe or wonderment.
(botany)Placed after a herbarium abbreviation to indicate that the mentioned material held there has been examined directly by the author.
