Antlophobia

Antlophobia is a specific phobia—an irrational fear of floods. The term comes from the Greek word antlia, meaning "pump", and phobos, meaning "fear". Antlophobic people usually fear the power of floods that can cause property damage or loss of life.

Antlophobia develops from past traumatic experiences with floods; either personal experiences or through knowing survivors of a flood.
