Search Gossamer

Gossamer 🔍

Gossamer is a thin, delicate material used for making light-sensitive fabrics like lace or embroidery. It's typically made from silk, cotton, or other natural fibers and has a high refractive index, allowing it to reflect light in all directions. Its thinness makes it lightweight and can be stretched to form intricate designs without damaging the fabric.

Erythroglossum 🔍

Erythrogenes, a type of gossamer-like material that is often used in printing and can also be found in textiles and decorative arts.

Gongylis 🔍

Gongylis is a genus of mammals in the family Ursidae, which includes the common gossamer bat and various other bats that are not known as bat-like creatures.

Glossogn2 🔍

GlossoGn2 is a biological term referring to a type of cell that produces small, white gossamer-like structures. These cells are crucial for maintaining homeostasis in various living organisms and have been extensively studied in biology.

Gloeobacteria 🔍

Gloeobacteria is a class of bacteria that includes gram-positive and negative bacteria, commonly found in the gut microbiome and respiratory tract. They are characterized by their ability to form gossamer-like structures called biofilms which can be found in various environments including soil, water, and food. The term "gloeobacteria" refers to the structure of these organisms.

Gossamer-wings 🔍

Gossamer wings are thin, flexible, and lightweight structures that are often used for crafting delicate textiles like lace or brooches. They can be made of various materials such as silk, cotton, or polyester, depending on the desired finish. These wings are typically made from a thin layer of fabric or material, which is then carefully woven together to create intricate patterns and designs.

Guttavirus 🔍

Guttaviruses are a group of RNA viruses that cause infections in the respiratory tract, including the lungs and throat. They can be classified into two main families: Adenovirus (Adenoviridae) and Picornavirus (Picornaviridae). The term "guttavirus" refers to this specific family of gossamer-like particles that are commonly found in the respiratory tract, often causing symptoms such as coughing, sore throat, and difficulty swallowing

Gyrocotylidae 🔍

The term "gyrocotylidae" refers to a family of insects in the order Coleoptera, which includes the most common insect species known as ants and some other small insects. These insects are characterized by their long, slender bodies covered with long, pointed appendages called gills or gossamer that they use for breathing and feeding.

Coganus 🔍

Coganus is a genus of fungi in the family Ascomycota, commonly known as the fungi that produce gossamer-like fibers. These fungi are characterized by their ability to create complex structures from organic matter, such as cellulose and lignin, which they extract from dead plant material or decompose dead animals.

Pogoniopsis 🔍

Pogonites are aquatic fungi that produce a gossamer-like substance called pogonite, which they use for their food and protection.

Neogastromyzon 🔍

Neogastromyzon is a type of fungus that produces a unique, white glistening gossamer-like material on its spores when it decays. This material is known for being highly nutritious and has been used in various forms of medicine and food preservation.
