I don't know eq. I have some papers, which have been in my possession since 1983: In them, they refer to that material attributed to Petronius Arbiter, as a 'glopola'.
If I Google it, the only example of usage it produces are the very same papers that were my starting point!
Granted it finds proper noun (names) of Rock band, and I am not sure if monster is in this category. Are they derived names?
I am beginning to wonder if it has been made up, and passed into usage as with 'falange of gorillas'!
