''Bombyx'' is the genus of true silkmoths or mulberry silkmoths of the family Bombycidae. For a few thousand years, people only recognised 2 species, but then several other less important species were discovered, and the genus contains 2 tested hybrid species- a semi-natural cross between a female Bombyx mori and a male Bombyx mandarina, and an other hybrid the other way around from the first. ==Species== * ''Bombyx horsfieldi'' (Moore, 1860) * ''Bombyx huttoni'' Westwood, 1847 * ''Bombyx incomposita'' van Eecke, 1929 * ''Bombyx lemeepauli'' Lemée, 1950 * ''Bombyx mandarina'', wild silkmoth * ''Bombyx mori'', domesticated silkmoth. "Silkworm" is the name usually applied to the caterpillars of this species. They have lost the ability to fly. * ''Bombyx rotundapex'' Miyata & Kishida, 1990 * ''Bombyx shini'' Park and Sohn, 2002 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bombyx」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
