If it is a feminine irregular noun of the third declension, which arx/acris
(meaning citadel) is, the adjectective would compliment it in fem. gender,
but with different declension.

Latin is no longer used for such reasons!

Surely Acis is masculine in gender? Shouldn't it be Acis tingitanus etc. ?
