English: Grasshopper (螽斯 / 螽斯 / Zhōng sī), specifically Tettigoniidae, on Chinese numismatic charms symbolise "Fertility and procreation". Grasshoppers are associated with fertility because they gather together and reproduce in large numbers. One charm has the inscription "may your children be as numerous as grasshoppers" (螽斯衍慶, zhōng sī yǎn qìng).
