Bombyx hybrid Bombyx hybrid The "Bombyx" hybrid is a hybrid between a female "Bombyx mori" moth and a male "Bombyx mandarina" moth. They produce silkworm larvae like all species of "Bombyx". The larvae look a lot like the other variations. They are brown in the first half and gray at the bottom half, but they get larger black spots than other variations. Generally, they look like a normal "Bombyx" moth, but a bit darker. Hybrids are not used for silk, but are used for research. "Bombyx mori" females are much more likely to mate with a male "Bombyx mandarina", but both species
Ocular larva migrans value in diagnosing ocular toxocariasis. The retinal lesion can mimic retinoblastoma in appearance, and mistaken diagnosis of the latter condition can lead to unnecessary "enucleation". The eye involvement can cause the following inflammatory disorders: In contrast to visceral larva migrans, ocular toxocariasis usually develops in older children or young adults with no history of pica. These patients seldom have eosinophilia or visceral manifestations. Ocular larva migrans Ocular larva migrans (OLM), also known as ocular toxocariasis, is the ocular form of the larva migrans syndrome that occurs when "Toxocara canis" (dog roundworm) larvae invade the eye. They may be associated with
