iecur, oris, n — liver (sea animals and fish)
-us

The endings of nouns of neuter gender of the 3rd declension can be found in
Unit 12 [see Unit 12].
Example (neutrum)

There are some exceptions in the list of the words of the 3rd declension. These
words have the endings of neuter gender but the words are either masculine or femi-
nine gender. And it’s necessary to agree the gender of the adjectives with the gender
of the nouns, taking into consideration that these words are exceptions [See Active
Vocabulary, Unit 12].
