U+8787 "螇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8787 "螇" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of insect, often identified in classical texts as a kind of small, parasitic fly or a similar creature. Its usage is found in literary and historical Chinese contexts, where it appears in descriptions of natural phenomena or in folklore. In modern standard Chinese, this character is considered rare and is not commonly used in everyday language, but it retains significance for scholars studying ancient texts or specialized terminology in entomology and classical literature. The character is composed of the radical for "insect" (虫) along with a phonetic component derived from "奚", combining semantic and sound elements typical of many CJK unified ideographs.
