螽
U+87BD "螽" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that traditionally refers to a type of grasshopper or locust, specifically the katydid or longhorned grasshopper, and appears in classical texts such as the Book of Odes, where it symbolizes fecundity and abundance due to its prolific egg-laying. It is composed of a radical for "insect" and a phonetic component, and while not commonly used in modern everyday Chinese, it remains relevant in literary and historical contexts, as well as in biological terminology for certain insect species.
