From Middle English tailles, equivalent to tail +‎ -less.

tailless (not comparable)

  1. Without a tail; not having a tail.
    • 2018, Tim Flannery, Europe: A Natural History, page 36:
      Strictly speaking, the term toad should be restricted to members of the family Bufonidae, of which the common European and natterjack toads are good examples. But common parlance has seen the name applied to any warty tail-less amphibian.
