1875 T. H. Huxley & H. N. Martin Course Elem. Biol. 110 There is a single adductor muscle and a rudimentary foot, from which one or two long structureless filaments, representing the byssus of the sea-mussel, proceed. These byssal filaments become entangled with one another and tend to keep the ‘Glochidia’ in their places.

1888 G. Rolleston & W. H. Jackson Forms Animal Life (ed. 2) 137 This Glochidium is eventually set free from the parent.

1930 G. R. de Beer Embryol. & Evol. 44 The Glochidium larva of Unio.
