蛬 [qióng]
1. Ancient term for "蛩," meaning cricket.
2. A type of insect. Specifically refers to crickets, which have long antennae, strong hind legs for jumping, hard front wings, and long membranous hind wings used for flying. Male crickets can rub their wings to produce a chirping sound, which is used to attract females or for competitive displays. They like to eat vegetables, are aggressive, and are often kept as pets.
