U+8803 "蠃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
蠃
U+8803 "蠃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character historically classified as a pictogram or ideograph, depicting a type of parasitic wasp or insect, specifically associated with the solitary wasp or the Chinese "guo lu" (果蠃) that carries its larvae in mud nests. In classical texts, it often appears in the context of ancient natural observations, such as in the "Shijing" (Classic of Poetry), where "蠃" refers to this insect known for its behavior of laying eggs in the bodies of caterpillars. Today, it is a rare and complex character, typically used in literary or historical references rather than in modern everyday Chinese language.
