1912E. A. Minchin Introd. Stud. Protozoa ix. 181 It would perhaps be better to replace the terms ‘schizont’ and ‘sporont’ by ‘agamont’ and ‘gamont’ respectively. 1957New Biol. XXIV. 27 Typically there are two distinct generations [in foraminifera], namely a sexual one (the gamont) which alternates with an asexual one (or schizont). 1965V. A. Dogiel Gen. Protozool.
