魨

U+9B68 "魨" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to the pufferfish, a type of fish known for its ability to inflate its body as a defense mechanism. In modern usage, it is most commonly associated with the term "河魨" (hé tún), which denotes the pufferfish species that is considered a delicacy in East Asian cuisine, particularly in Japan and China, despite the potential lethal toxicity of its organs if not prepared correctly. The character is composed of the radical for fish (鱼) on the left side, indicating its aquatic nature, and a phonetic component on the right that contributes to its pronunciation and meaning.
