Entomology definition of Neuter: the term applied to workers or undeveloped
females in some Hymenoptera: indicated by * or *, an imperfect
form of Venus sign.{Scanner’s comment: I have no characters to
represent the symbols. One is like the normal female (Venus)
sign, but with no cross stroke on the downward stroke. The other
is the symbol for Mercury or of Hermaphroditus, like a Venus sign
crowned with crescent horns.}
