U+869F "蚟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+869F "蚟" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character (hanzi) that belongs to the insect radical (虫) and is read as "wáng" in Mandarin, primarily appearing in classical texts and regional dialects. It refers specifically to a type of small insect, often identified as a kind of spider or a similar arachnid, and is notably used in historical Chinese dictionaries like the "Kangxi Zidian" as a compound character, sometimes appearing in the term "蚟蛛" as an alternative name for a spider. This character is rarely used in modern writing, making it a relatively obscure sinograph preserved mainly in lexical heritage.
