U+8697 "蚗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8697 "蚗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that belongs to the Kangxi radical 142, which represents "insect" or "worm." This character is not commonly used in modern Chinese, but it appears in classical texts and historical dictionaries, where it often refers to a type of insect or a small creature, possibly associated with the cicada or a similar arthropod. Its composition combines the "insect" radical with a phonetic component, reflecting the typical structure of many Chinese characters. Due to its rarity, it is primarily encountered in specialized contexts such as linguistic research, ancient literature, or character encoding studies.
