  From  Webster's  Revised  Unabridged  Dictionary  (1913)  [web1913]: 
 
  Monerula  \Mo*ner"u*la\,  n.  [NL.,  dim.  of  moner.  See  {Monera}.] 
  (Biol.) 
  A  germ  in  that  stage  of  development  in  which  its  form  is 
  simply  that  of  a  non-nucleated  mass  of  protoplasm.  It 
  precedes  the  one-celled  germ.  So  called  from  its  likeness  to 
  a  moner.  --Haeckel.
