U+87CC "蟌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蟌
U+87CC "蟌" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely encountered Chinese character that represents the term for a dragonfly, specifically referring to a type of large, often colorful dragonfly found in East Asian contexts. It belongs to the "CJK Unified Ideographs" block, which encompasses characters from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese scripts, and its graphic composition combines the radical for "insect" (虫) with a phonetic component suggesting sound or name. While not common in modern everyday usage, this character appears in classical Chinese literature and specialized zoological texts where precise insect nomenclature is required, highlighting its niche but enduring role in describing natural phenomena.
