Tè (Chinese crop-pest character)

𫋌 is a simplified form of 蟘 (Mandarin tè), an old Chinese name for an insect that eats crop leaves. An early dictionary also links the pest to corrupt officials.

Text symbol

What 𫋌 means

It names the leaf eater in a crop-pest list.

《尔雅》, an early Chinese wordbook, sorts pests by plant part: growing tip, leaves, stalk, or roots. 蟘 eats leaves. 《诗经·小雅·大田》 uses 螣 for this pest in a plea to spare young crops. 《说文解字》 links it to officials who overtax people—a political wordplay, not a species label.

Classical crop vocabulary; context matters.

This old label does not identify a precise modern insect species.
