Source: Noto Sans CJK Source: Browser Default

U+877C "蝼" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of mole cricket, an insect known for burrowing in soil and often considered a pest in agriculture. It is composed of the radical for "insect" (虫) on the left, indicating its association with bugs or small creatures, and a phonetic component (娄) on the right. In modern usage, "蝼" appears in terms like "蝼蚁" (lóu yǐ), meaning "mole crickets and ants," which is a metaphor for insignificant or trivial beings. This character is part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block in Unicode, ensuring its consistent representation across digital systems.
