【蛞蝓】

Zheng Xuan comments: "Luo" refers to slugs/snails. *Erya* states: "Luo" refers to slugs/snails. Guo Pu comments: It is indeed a snail. *Famous Physicians' Records* states that it should be listed separately under the Snail entry, which is incorrect. The old text uses "Kuo," but *Shuowen Jiezi* claims this character does not exist. According to *Yupian*, "Kuo" refers to Kuo Dong, indicating it is a variant of "Huo Dong"; therefore, it should be written as "Huo."
