What is the other name of the mulberry silkworm which is used to produce silk fibre?

The scientific name of the mulberry silkworm which is used to produce silk fibre is Bombyx mori.

 The name "Bombyx" is derived from the Greek word "bombux," which means "silk." The word "mori" is derived from the Latin word "morsus," which means "to bite" or "to chew." The name "mori" refers to the silkworm's habit of chewing through mulberry leaves, which are its primary food source.

The mulberry silkworm is also known as the domestic silk moth because it has been domesticated and selectively bred for silk production for thousands of years. The silkworm is native to China, where it was first domesticated and where most of the world's silk production still takes place.
