The term 'ORMER' is a type of mollusk found in the waters around the British Isles. It is also known as an ABALONE, which is a seven-letter word that can be used to solve crosswords. The ormer is a large, edible sea snail that is highly prized for its meat and shell. It is often served as a delicacy in restaurants and is also used in jewelry making. The ormer is a protected species in some areas due to overfishing.
