Mucous connective tissue → Mesenchyme – By far, mesenchyme is the more common name for this structure. "Mucous connective tissue" is not a widely accepted name and we should not be using it here. See here (google n gram), list of sources are almost all mesenchyme. I can't access Terminologia Embryologica but if another editor could find it that may help. Mesenchyme has over 2 million google results... mucous connective tissue, less than 10,000 (probably more tomorrow when we start getting mirrored) Tom (LT) (talk) 10:45, 26 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Support mesenchyme is the term usually used for the embryonic tissue and is linked in epithelial-to-mesenchymal and the reverse. From a quick search there is a ref to mucous connective tissue as being a transitional stage from the mesenchyme.--Iztwoz (talk) 11:08, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Sure happy with either term. Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 18:03, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

I have gone ahead and made the move. Article still needs some work with respect to sourcing. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 18:05, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
