U+9B63 "魣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+9B63 "魣" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, and it is typically used to represent a type of fish, specifically referencing the mullet or a similar fish species in classical or specialized contexts. This character is composed of the radical "鱼" (fish) on the left, indicating its semantic association with aquatic life, and the phonetic component "予" on the right, which suggests its pronunciation in Mandarin is approximated as "yú" or "xù" depending on regional readings. Although it is not commonly used in modern standard Chinese, it appears in historical texts, dictionaries, and certain technical zoological references where precise identification of fish species is needed. As a CJK unified character, it carries the same glyph across various East Asian writing systems, though its frequency of use is low compared to more common characters.
