I see the こ reading is still used in modern terms like 海鼠腸 and 海鼠子, though. |

Daijr/s & koj have こ, quoting 古事記 (8th century) and 和名抄 (10th century). Could probably just drop it.
Daijr/s have their usual jukujikun symbols on it. |

wiki:
"Sea cucumbers have also inspired thousands of haiku in Japan, where they are called namako (海鼠), written with characters that can be translated "sea mice". In English translations of these haiku, they are usually called "sea slugs". Although (according to the Oxford English Dictionary), the English term "sea slug" was originally applied to holothurians (during the 18th century), the term is now applied to several groups of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks that have no shell or only a very reduced shell, including the nudibranchs." |

today, a 'sea cucumber' is totally different than a 'sea slug'. it's the difference between a starfish and a snail.
nowadays, this is just a self-perpetuating translation error |
