U+8735 "蜵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+8735 "蜵" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that originally referred to a type of aquatic insect or mollusk, often identified in classical texts as a kind of clam or mussel, and its components reflect the radical for "insect" or "worm" (虫) combined with a phonetic element (肙). This character appears in ancient Chinese lexicons like the Shuowen Jiezi but is not commonly employed in modern standard Chinese, making it a specialized glyph primarily of interest to historical linguists, calligraphy enthusiasts, or those studying classical literature. Its encoding in the Unicode standard ensures its preservation for digital text rendering and scholarly use across platforms.
