7.104

蝗蟲(上音皇考聲飛蝗也爾雅曰食苗心螟食葉𧎢食節賊食根蟊案並蝗蟲異名也下正體蟲字爾雅曰有足謂之蟲無足謂之豸)。

蝗蟲 [Locusts]: The upper [character] has the sound 皇 (huáng); the Kaosheng says, “Flying locust.” The Erya says, “Those that eat the core of sprouts are called 螟; those that eat the leaves are called 𧎢; those that eat the joints are called 賊; those that eat the roots are called 蟊.” Note that these are all alternative names for locusts. The lower [character] is the orthodox character 蟲; the Erya says, “Those with feet are called 蟲; those without feet are called 豸.”
