U+9C43 "鱃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+9C43 "鱃" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Chinese character that primarily appears in historical or classical texts, where it denotes a type of fish, specifically a kind of sturgeon or similar aquatic creature. Its structure combines the radical for fish (魚) on the left with a phonetic component on the right, though it is not commonly used in modern Chinese or Japanese writing. Due to its obscurity, the character may require specialized fonts or software to display correctly, and its exact usage and meaning are often confined to specialized lexicons or ancient literature.
