U+868E "蚎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+868E "蚎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obsolete Chinese character that is not commonly found in modern standard texts. It appears to be a variant or component related to insect or shellfish radicals, as its graphical composition includes the "虫" (insect) radical. Its precise meaning and usage are largely undocumented in contemporary dictionaries, though it may have historically referred to a specific type of small creature or been used in ancient or specialized literary contexts. Due to its obscurity, it is rarely encoded in common fonts or encountered in digital communication, making it a point of interest primarily for historical linguistic study or character encoding preservation.
