Can you give some examples of actual words with this element in them?
I tried every variant spelling I could imagine, in Latin and Greek, and couldn't find any word that quite made sense.

I could only find this for the legnia in saprolegnia:
The only l-word I know similar to "border" is Latin <b>limen</b>. It may be related somehow to this -legnia.

From: http://employees.csbsju.edu/wlamberts/b ... vocab2.htmSaprolegnia (sapro-, "rotted" + -legnia, "border" -- a "halo of rottenness")
