U+8795 "螕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
螕
U+8795 "螕" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) primarily used in classical and regional writing, where it denotes a type of parasitic insect, specifically a tick or mite. Historically referenced in ancient Chinese texts such as the "Erya" dictionary and in traditional medicine, the character is composed of the radical "虫" (insect or worm) on the left and the phonetic component "蓖" on the right. It is not commonly used in modern simplified Chinese, but appears in specialized contexts, such as zoological classifications or literary citations, where it continues to be recognized for its specific entomological meaning.
