Le Grand dict. encycl. Larousse ne fait pas de distinction entre les termes «limicole» et «vasicole», et donne la définition suivante : «Se dit d'un organisme qui vit dans ou sur la vase imprégnée d'eau.» Le Grand Robert indique que «limicole» appartient à la zoologie et signifie «Qui vit sur la vase du fond de la mer, des lacs, par exemple : Annélides limicoles» mais que «vasicole» appartient aux domaines de la zoologie et de la biologie et signifie «Qui vit dans la vase, par exemple : Vers, bactéries vasicoles». 2, record 1, French, - limicole
