CIDE DICTIONARY

mycoderman. [NL., from Gr. my`khs a fungus + de`rma skin.].
  •  One of the forms in which bacteria group themselves; a more or less thick layer of motionless but living bacteria, formed by the bacteria uniting on the surface of the fluid in which they are developed. This production differs from the zoöglœa stage of bacteria by not having the intermediary mucous substance.  [1913 Webster]
  •  A genus of microörganisms of which the acetic ferment (Mycoderma aceti), which converts alcoholic fluids into vinegar, is a representative. Cf. Mother.  [1913 Webster]
