Sao
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Etymology: Presumably named after the nereid (see Etymology 1). H. tubicola was initially assigned to the genus Nereis.
Senses: examples: text: The use of the tube is to protect the body from the pressure of the soft mud in which it stands immersed. When the tube is overset or cast out by the waves or accident, the worm leaves it, and becomes, in its turn, exposed to enemies. To protect itself from these while a new tube is being secreted, nature has amply furnished the Sao with a series of bristling lances on each side. These arms are of exquisite make, very fine and very sharp; and those of the upper bundle have their points bent and inclined towards those of the lower bundle, which are likewise bent to meet them.
ref: 1865, George Johnston, A Catalogue of the British Non-Parasitical Worms in the Collection of the British Museum, London: Taylor & Francis, →OCLC, page 138:
text: Amongst the other genera belonging to this group of Euniceans, there are one or two which inhabit tubes. Such is the Sao (Northia tubicola of Johnston, the Nereis tubicola of Müller), and the Onuphis conchilega of Sars.
ref: 1869, William Baird, “The Annelidan Worms, or Annelides (Annelida)”, in The Student and Intellectual Observer, volume 3, London: Groombridge & Sons, →OCLC, page 169:
text: The family Eunicidæ is distinguished by a long and numerously segmented body, and a distinct and projecting head. […] The Sao, [Northia tubicola] one of this family, lives in a tube which it constructs for itself, and which presents the exact appearance of a quill pen.

The occurrence of highly invasive (tramp) ants (Passera 1994) is of concern, and Saks and Carroll (1980) showed that tramp ants could become abundant in disturbed areas while remaining uncommon in nearby undisturbed forests. Exotic tramp ant species have been found to produce major changes in abundance and diversity of invertebrate species in other regions (Lubin 1984; Zenner-Polania 1994).
