Definition: hair snake
Gordius
\Gor"di*us\, n. [NL. See
Gordian, 1.] (Zo["o]l.)
A genus of long, slender, nematoid worms, parasitic in
insects until near maturity, when they leave the insect, and
live in water, in which they deposit their eggs; -- called
also
hair eel,
hairworm, and
hair snake, from the
absurd, but common and widely diffused, notion that they are
metamorphosed horsehairs.
[1913 Webster]
