Mix-Hellene.1880Günther Fishes xiii. 177 The majority of Teleostei are mixogamous—that is, the males and females congregate on the spawning-beds, and..several males attend to the same female, frequently changing from one female to another.1881Athenæum 15 Jan. 97 Chapter xiii [of Günther's Study of Fishes deals] with..mixogamy, polygamy..as occurring amongst fishes.1959Archivio di Oceanogr. e Limnol. XI. Suppl. 243 At the final session of the Venice Symposium a revised classification of marine waters according to salinity was adopted and recommended for universal application... The term ‘brackish’, as a classificatory term, was avoided because of its ambiguous meaning and the term ‘mixo⁓haline’ was proposed to indicate diluted sea water.1969G. Vevers tr. Friedrich's Marine Biol. vii. 419 Waters with intermediate salinities are known as brackish or mixohaline.1946E. S. Goodrich in Q. Jrnl. Microsc. Sci. LXXXVI. 119 When, as in the majority of Polychaeta, the coelomostome is so completely fused to the inner end of the nephridium as to form an apparently simple large-funnelled organ..it may be called a mixonephridium... This new name is proposed to draw attention to the difference between these two kinds of organ (the metanephridium, and the compound nephromixial organ).1963Mixonephridium [see cœlomo-].1972M. S. Gardiner Biol. Invertebr. xiii. 505/2 In a mixonephridium, the nephrostome has presumably become occluded and lost.1958G. A. Kerkut Borradaile & Potts's Invertebrata (ed. 3) viii. 287 Mixonephrium.
