U+9B9B "鮛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9B9B "鮛" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare or obscure Chinese character that falls under the radical for fish (鱼), appearing in historical or classical texts rather than modern everyday usage. It is typically associated with a specific type of fish, often identified as the sturgeon or a similar large fish, though its exact meaning can vary depending on the historical context. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideograph block and is encoded for compatibility with East Asian script systems, preserving linguistic heritage from ancient or Middle Chinese sources. In modern computing, it is used primarily for scholarly or archival purposes rather than common communication.
