U+8701 "蜁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蜁
U+8701 "蜁" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of snail or spiral-shelled mollusk, often associated with the word "snail" in classical texts. It is composed of the radical for "insect" or "creature" (虫) and a phonetic component, and its usage appears in ancient Chinese literature, such as in descriptions of small, coiled creatures. While not common in modern everyday writing, it retains significance in historical and etymological contexts within the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) character set.
