CIDE DICTIONARY
thigmotaxis, n. [NL., fr. Gr. touch + an arranging.].
     The property possessed by living protoplasm of contracting, and thus moving, when touched by a solid or fluid substance.
    " When the movement is away from the touching body, it is negative thigmotaxis; when towards it, positive thigmotaxis."  [Webster 1913 Suppl.]
