Unicode Version 17.0
蠥
U+8825 "蠥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character traditionally meaning a "calamity" or "disaster," often associated with supernatural or agricultural misfortune, such as a plague of insects or a blight. It is composed of the radical for "insect" or "worm" (虫) and a phonetic component, reflecting its connection to pestilence and harm in classical texts. This character is not commonly found in modern Chinese or Japanese usage, but it appears in historical dictionaries and literary works, where it describes a type of harmful creature or a devastating event.
