suctorial

In this septum there is formed at a later stage a vertical muscle attached to the suctorial part of the stomodum.

Lampreys are carnivorous creatures, and attach themselves to fishes by their suctorial mouths, and rasp away the flesh.

The two heterogenetic generations are very different in the parasitic suctorial worms (trematodes).

In the same place the suctorial Entomostraca are added as examples of the difficulty of recognising the type.

It is called by Mr. Swainson the suctorial, from a very generally prevalent peculiarity, that of drawing sustenance by suction.
