1823 G. Crabb Universal Technol. Dict. Filose, ending in a thread-like process; an epithet applied to insects and plants.

1846 Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 18 29 Thus J. De C. Sowerby includes in it [sc. the genus Atrypa] the filose Spirifers of Phillips.

1897 Amer. Naturalist 31 242 Something similar to these filose ‘pseudopodia’ is met with in certain cells of many-celled animals, as in the pigment cells of the retina, etc.

1906 Amer. Naturalist 40 355 Fine threads inside this case suggested that some filose, or else secretional activity of the egg might having been going on.

1935 Amer. Midland Naturalist 16 784 The end segment carries three filose bristles instead of two.

1968 Mycologia 60 58 In contrast to feeding myxamoebae that may form broad pseudopodia from any part of the cell, such actively moving myxamoebae often possess thin filose pseudopodia that project primarily from the anterior surface.

2002 Clin. Infectious Dis. 35 434/2 Organisms of the genus Acanthamoeba are described as small, filose, free-living amebae.
