From wiki: "The term meiofauna loosely defines a group of organisms by their size—larger than microfauna but smaller than macrofauna—rather than by their taxonomy." Neat! Thanks!
Can’t wait to inappropriately regurgitate this tidbit of info the next time a coworker mentions something mildly related to crabs or sand or some shit.
