蝗蟲（上胡光反爾雅食苗心曰螟食葉曰螣食根曰蟊食節曰蠈說文四種雖異名皆蝗蟲也廣雅螽蝗也形如負螽其實各別顏色大小不相似也故有蝗螟蟊蛾之異名也蝘一殄反又音偃音恃蟊音莫侯反螽音終螟音冥蠈音賊蜮音虢螻蟈也）。

> Locusts and insects (蝗蟲: the first character has the fanqie h- + \[g\]uang \[=huáng\]; the Erya says: 'Those that eat the heart of seedlings are called míng (螟); those that eat the leaves are called téng (螣); those that eat the roots are called máo (蟊); those that eat the joints are called zéi (蠈)'; the Shuowen says: 'Although the four kinds have different names, they are all locusts'; the Guangya says: 'The zhōng (螽) is a locust; its shape is like the fùzhōng (負螽), but they are actually distinct, with colors and sizes that do not resemble each other; hence they have different names such as huáng, míng, máo, and é (moth)'. Yǎn has the fanqie y- + \[t\]ian \[=yǎn\], also pronounced yǎn, meaning chǐ \[恃\]; máo (蟊) has the fanqie m- + \[h\]ou \[=máo\]; zhōng (螽) is pronounced zhōng; míng (螟) is pronounced míng; zéi (蠈) is pronounced zéi; yù (蜮) is pronounced guó, which is the mole cricket \[螻蟈\]).
