U+876E "蝮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

蝮

U+876E "蝮" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that primarily refers to a type of venomous snake, specifically the "Pallas' pit viper" (Gloydius halys) or a similar viper species found in East Asia. In Chinese, the character is pronounced "fù" and is most commonly encountered in the compound "蝮蛇" (fùshé), which denotes a pit viper known for its toxicity. Historically and in classical texts, it also appears in the term "蝮虺" (fùhuǐ), referring to a poisonous snake or, in broader figurative usage, to a treacherous or malicious person. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, where it represents a specific component of the written language shared across these cultures, though its primary usage remains in Chinese.
