蜥
U+8725 "蜥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the concept of a lizard, specifically used in the term "蜥蜴" (xīyì), which means "lizard" in Mandarin. This ideograph belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, and its structure combines the radical for "insect" or "reptile" (虫) on the left with the phonetic component "析" (xī) on the right, reflecting a typical logographic composition where meaning and sound are integrated. Historically, it has been used in classical and modern Chinese texts to refer to various small, scaly reptiles, and it remains a standard character in modern Chinese writing and typography.
