Unicode Version 17.0

U+8811 "蠑" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) used primarily in traditional and classical contexts, representing a mythological animal often described as a type of dragon or aquatic creature. In modern Chinese, it appears most frequently in the compound word "蠑螈" (róngyuán), which refers to a salamander or newt. The character is composed of the radical "虫" (insect or reptile) on the left, indicating its association with creatures, and the phonetic component "榮" on the right. It is classified under the Kangxi radical 142 and is used in East Asian writing systems including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, though its usage is now largely restricted to zoological or literary references.
