U+86D8 "蛘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

蛘

U+86D8 "蛘" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used primarily in traditional and simplified Chinese writing, where it represents a type of beetle or weevil, often referring specifically to the rice weevil or similar grain pests. This character is composed of a radical related to insects or worms (虫) and a phonetic component (羊), which gives a clue to its pronunciation, typically read as "yáng" in Mandarin. It appears in historical and agricultural texts discussing pests that damage stored grains, though its usage is relatively infrequent in modern Chinese language, appearing more commonly in specialized or classical contexts.
