67. The Chinese reads 䑜鹿虫 (Taishō 2881, p. 1381b1–2). It is not clear what type of insect this is, but contra the Tibetan, the Chinese indicates that this is an insect and not a deer. Literally, it means “butterfly-deer insect.” In the English translation of Toh 355 F.211.a, this is rendered as “centipede,” but we could not find anything that might indicate that this term refers to a centipede.
