U+86B3 "蚳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+86B3 "蚳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that historically refers to a type of ant egg or a small insect, often interpreted as the eggs of ants or termites, and is found in classical Chinese texts. This character is composed of the radical for insect or worm, 虫, on the left side, combined with the phonetic component 氐 on the right, and belongs to the CJK Unified Ideographs block, which encodes characters used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems. In modern usage, it is rare and primarily appears in specialized dictionaries or historical literature, where it denotes the particular insect reproductive stage rather than a common everyday term.
