pam'-er-wurm (gazam; Septuagint kampe (Amos 4:9 Joel 1:4; Joel 2:25)): "Palmer-worm" means "caterpillar," but the insect meant is probably a kind of locust.

See INSECTS; LOCUST.

Easton's Bible Dictionary
(Hebrews gazam). The English word may denote either a caterpillar (as rendered by the LXX.), which wanders like a palmer or pilgrim, or which travels like pilgrims in bands (Joel 1:4; 2:25), the wingless locusts, or the migratory locust in its larva state.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
1. (n.) Any hairy caterpillar which appears in great numbers, devouring herbage, and wandering about like a palmer. The name is applied also to other voracious insects.

2. (n.) In America, the larva of any one of several moths, which destroys the foliage of fruit and forest trees, esp. the larva of Ypsolophus pometellus, which sometimes appears in vast numbers.
