As nouns the difference between fecundation and ovulist
is that fecundation is the process whereby a new organism is produced by fertilization while ovulist is a believer in the theory (called "encasement theory") that the egg was the real animal germ, and that at the time of fecundation the spermatozoa simply gave the impetus which caused the unfolding of the egg, in which all generations were enclosed one within the other.
