陶河 (the character should properly be written as 掏, pronounced with the fanqie 徒刀 [táo]. In the Central Plains it is called táohé (掏河); south of the Yangtze it is called tíhú (鵜鶘), and also líhú (黎鶘). The Shijing caomu shu says: "One name is táohé"—this is it. Tí (鵜) is also written as 鴺; Guo Pu's commentary on the Sancang gives the pronunciation as lí (黎), and alternatively as the fanqie 大奚 [dà xī]).
