tellinidn.adj.

Brit.

/tɛˈlʌɪnɪd/, U.S.

/təˈlaɪnəd/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: Latin Tellina , -id suffix³.

Etymology: < scientific Latin Tellina, genus name (see tellina n.) + -id suffix³, after scientific Latin Tellinidae, family name ( W. Swainson Treat. Malacol. (1840) 369).Compare French Tellinacées denoting the Tellinidae (de Blainville (1814). Compare French Tellinide, genus name (Lamarck 1818), scientific Latin Tellinides (1823 or earlier; < French), now a subgenus name).

Zoology & Palaeontology.

A. n.

Any of numerous burrowing, marine bivalve molluscs constituting the family Tellinidae, having flattened shells and very long siphons.

ΚΠ

1889 Contrib. Canad. Palæontol. 1 177 A perfect right valve of a small Tellinid which corresponds remarkably well with Meek's figure.

1956 Proc. Royal Soc. B. 145 566 There is a multiplicity of layers as compared with the siphons of tellinids.

2009 E. J. Anthony Shore Processes & Palaeoenvironmental Applic. iii. 75 Bivalves (especially tellinids such as Macoma balthica and Scrobicularia plana) produce large amounts of pseudo-faecal material.

B. adj.

Of or relating to the mollusc family Tellinidae; designating a mollusc of this family.

ΚΠ

1924 Proc. Linn. Soc. New S. Wales 49 211 The grouping of Tellinid species must be undertaken at the first opportunity.

1951 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) B. 235 421 The form somewhat recalls that of the tellinid genus Gastrana.

2012 R. F. Dame Ecol. Marine Bivalves (ed. 2) iv. 79 Many tellinid bivalves, e.g., Macoma and Scrobicularia, have complex stomachs capable of sorting and retaining smaller..particles.
