Dear Folks:

I came across the following. Actually rather informative. Seems this horse
(or whatever is pc) has been worked before:

Latham, R.G. 1859. Remarks on the use of the signs of accent and quantity as
        guides to the pronunciation of words derived from the classical
        languages, with particular reference to zoological and botanical
        terms. Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 3, 3: 483-488.
