An animalcule is a minute or microscopic animal or protozoan, or a tiny animal, such as an insect or mouse.
Animalcules were identified by the Dutch scientist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek in the late 17th century. He used a microscope he designed to observe tiny organisms in water, which he referred to as "animalcules," meaning "little animals." These microscopic entities are now understood to encompass a variety of microorganisms, including bacteria and protozoa. Van Leeuwenhoek's discoveries were foundational in the field of microbiology.
