Conodont \Co"no*dont\ (k[=o]"n[-o]*d[o^]nt), n. [Gr. kw^nos cone
   + 'odoy`s, 'odo`ntos, tooth.] (Zool.)
   A peculiar toothlike fossil of many forms, found especially
   in carboniferous rocks. Such fossils are supposed by some to
   be the teeth of marsipobranch fishes, but they are probably
   the jaws of annelids.
