Kermes vermilio is a species of Kermes which feeds on trees. Some of the species are used by humans to make vermilion; though a mineral form used in many cultures and discovered at a similar time is cinnabar (crystallized HgS, mercury sulfide).[1] For details of further chemical alternatives see vermilion.
