Brit.

/ˈdɪktɪənʌɪn/, U.S.

/ˈdɪktiəˌnaɪn/

Origin: A borrowing from Greek, combined with an English element; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: Greek δίκτυον , -ine suffix¹.

Etymology: < ancient Greek δίκτυον net (see dictyo- comb. form) + -ine suffix¹, after scientific Latin Dictyonina, suborder name (K. A. Zittell 1877, in Abhandl. der mathematisch-physikalische Klasse der Königl. Bayerischen Akad. der Wissensch. 13 i. 22).Quot. 1887 translates an unpublished German text.

Zoology.

A. adj.

Of, relating to, or designating hexactinellid sponges of the suborder Dictyonina, which have a siliceous skeleton formed from fused spicules. Formerly also: = dictyonal adj.

ΚΠ

1887 tr. F. E. Schulze in Rep. Sci. Results Voy. H.M.S. Challenger: Zool. XXI. 496 Even in the Silurian period both Lyssacine and Dictyonine forms appear to be present.

1957 Jrnl. Paleontol. 31 838/1 The pillars with the radial processes make up discrete units fused together as in the dictyonine group of hexactinellid sponges.

1993 E. N. K. Clarkson Invertebr. Palaeontol. & Evol. (ed. 3) iv. 89/2 (caption) Part of a skeleton of a dictyonine hexactinellid, showing overgrowth of contiguous hexact spicules by a siliceous envelope.

B. n.

A dictyonine sponge.

ΚΠ

1910 Proc. Royal Soc. B. 83 124 The Dictyonines, Lithistids, Tetractinellids, and Monaxonellids had been sorted out.

1993 Jrnl. Paleontol. 67 920/2 Some dictyonines do occur in depths less than 120 m.

Derivatives

† dictyoninal adj. Obsolete rare = sense A.

ΚΠ

1887 tr. F. E. Schulze in Rep. Sci. Results Voy. H.M.S. Challenger: Zool. XXI. 489 Thus there was at any stage the possibility of the Dictyoninal form becoming again reduced to a Lyssacine.
