（《拾遗》
【集解】藏器曰∶蒿雀似雀，青黑色，在蒿间，塞外弥多。食之，美于诸雀。

【主治】食之，益阳道，补精髓（藏器）。

（《拾遗》）
【释名】鹪鹩（《诗疏》）、桃虫（《诗经》）、蒙鸠（《荀子》）、女匠（《方言》）、

时珍曰∶按∶《尔雅》云∶桃虫，鹪。其雌曰 。扬雄《方言》云∶桑飞自关而东谓之
巧雀，或谓之女匠。自关而西谓之袜雀，或谓之巧女。燕人谓之巧妇。江东谓之桃雀，亦曰
布母。鸠性拙，鹪性巧，故得诸名。
【集解】藏器曰∶巧妇小于雀，在林薮间为窠。窠如小袋。
时珍曰∶鹪鹩处处有之。生蒿木之间，居藩篱之上。状似黄雀而小，灰色有斑，声如吹
嘘，喙如利锥。取茅苇毛毳而窠，大如鸡卵，而系之以麻发，至为精密。悬于树上，或一房
、二房。故曰巢林不过一枝，每食不过数粒。小人畜驯，教其作戏也。又一种 鹩，《尔雅

【集解】唐代学者陈藏器说：蒿雀形状像麻雀，羽毛呈青黑色，栖息在蒿草丛中，塞外地区非常多。食用它，味道比其他的麻雀更美味。
肉
【气味】味甘，性温，无毒。
【主治】食用它能补益阳气之道，填补精髓（引自陈藏器）。
（出自《本草拾遗》）
【释名】鹪鹩（出自《毛诗正义》）、桃虫（出自《诗经》）、蒙鸠（出自《荀子》）、女匠（出自《方言》）、黄雀（民间俗称）。
李时珍说：查阅《尔雅》记载：桃虫，就是鹪。它的雌鸟叫做“𪁺”（jiāo）。扬雄的《方言》记载：桑飞从函谷关以东称为巧雀，或者称为女匠。从函谷关以西称为袜雀，或者称为巧女。燕地人称为巧妇。江东地区称为桃雀，也称为布母。鸠的性质笨拙，鹪的性质灵巧，所以得了这些名字。
【集解】陈藏器说：巧妇鸟比麻雀小，在林泽之间筑巢。巢穴像一个小袋子。
李时珍说：鹪鹩到处都有。生长在蒿木之间，居住在篱笆之上。形状像黄雀但体型较小，灰色带有斑点，叫声如同吹气声，嘴喙像锋利的锥子。采集茅草和芦苇的绒毛来筑巢，大小如鸡蛋，并用麻发系结固定，制作得非常精密。悬挂在树上，有的一个房间，有的两个房间。所以说“巢林不过一枝，每食不过数粒”。小人畜养并驯化它们，教它们表演戏法。又有一种鹩，《尔雅》称之为剖苇。形状像麻雀，青灰色带斑纹，尾巴长，喜欢吃苇蠹，也属于鹪类。
肉
【气味】味甘，性温，无毒。
【主治】烤着吃非常美味，能让人聪明（引自汪颖）。
窠（鸟巢）
【主治】燃烧烟雾熏手，能使妇女在缫丝时技巧巧妙（引自陈藏器）。治疗膈气噎疾。将一枚鸟巢烧成灰，用酒送服，或者每次服用三钱，效果神奇灵验（引自李时珍，出自《卫生易简方》）。
(From *Bencao Shiyi* [Supplement to Materia Medica])
[Ji Jie] Chen Cangqi stated: The Haoque (Artemisia Sparrow) resembles a sparrow, with bluish-black plumage, inhabiting among artemisia plants; it is abundant in the frontier regions. Consuming it is more delicious than other sparrows.
Meat
[Qi Wei] Flavor: sweet; Nature: warm; Toxicity: non-toxic.
[ Zhu Zhi] Consumption benefits the Yang pathway and replenishes essence and marrow (Chen Cangqi).
Brain
[Zhu Zhi] Applied topically to frostbite, it prevents cracking of the skin on hands and feet (Chen Cangqi).
(From *Bencao Shiyi*)
[Shi Ming] Jiaoliao (from *Mao Shi Zheng Yi*); Tao Chong (from *Shi Jing*); Mengjiu (from *Xun Zi*); Nvjiang (from *Fang Yan*); Huangque (common name).
Li Shizhen said: According to *Er Ya*: "Tao Chong" is Jiao. Its female is called "Jiao". Yang Xiong's *Fang Yan* states: "Sangfei" is called Qiaoque or Nvjiang east of Hangu Pass. West of Hangu Pass, it is called Waque or Qiaonv. People in Yan call it Qiaofu. In Jiangdong, it is called Taoque or Bumü. The turtledove is clumsy, while the jay is skillful; hence these various names.
[Ji Jie] Chen Cangqi said: The Qiaofu bird is smaller than a sparrow, building nests in forests and marshes. The nest resembles a small pouch.
Li Shizhen said: Jiaoliao are found everywhere. They live among artemisia trees and on fences. Their appearance resembles that of the yellow sparrow but is smaller; they have gray feathers with spots, their call sounds like blowing air, and their beaks are sharp like awls. They gather reed fluff to build nests, about the size of a chicken egg, secured with hemp hair, made with great precision. Hung on trees, sometimes single-chambered, sometimes double-chambered. Hence the saying: "The forest nest holds but one branch, each meal takes but a few grains." Some keep them as pets and train them to perform tricks. There is another type, Liao, called Pouwei in *Er Ya*. It resembles a sparrow with blue-gray spotted plumage and a long tail, feeding on reed borers; it also belongs to the Jiao category.
Meat
[Qi Wei] Flavor: sweet; Nature: warm; Toxicity: non-toxic.
[Zhu Zhi] Roasted and eaten, it is very delicious and enhances intelligence (Wang Ying).
Nest
[Zhu Zhi] Burning the nest to produce smoke and fumigating the hands makes women skilled at silk reeling (Chen Cangqi). Treats Ge Qi (diaphragmatic qi stagnation) and dysphagia. Burn one nest to ash and take with wine, or take three qian per dose; it is miraculously effective (Li Shizhen, from *Weisheng Yijian Fang*).
