Record 1 2004-09-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aquaculture
  • Mollusks, Echinoderms and Prochordates
DEF

A top-loading pearl net forming a cone over a round base.

OBS

The terms used for the notion of "round pearl net" vary, as authors tend to describe the net rather than naming it with a uniform and widely accepted term. They will use phrases such as "round base pearl net" and "round-bottom conical bag". Nevertheless, the term "round pearl net" is the most appropriate and the most recognized term to designate this notion.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Aquaculture
  • Mollusques, échinodermes et procordés
DEF

Panier japonais à chargement par le dessus qui forme un cône au-dessus d'une base circulaire.

OBS

Le terme «panier conique» est une proposition construite sur le modèle de «panier pyramidal» compte tenu de l'absence presque totale de sources en français sur cette notion. Il est préféré à «panier circulaire» parce que le panier en question forme un cône plutôt qu'un cercle. «Panier conique» est donc le terme le plus logique.
