Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+8797 "螗" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that represents a specific type of insect, commonly identified as a kind of cicada or a large, buzzing bug found in East Asian contexts. In classical Chinese literature, it often appears in poetic or descriptive passages to evoke the sounds of summer or the natural world. The character is composed of the radical for insect, 虫, combined with a phonetic component 唐, which hints at its pronunciation similar to "tang." While not frequently used in modern everyday writing, "螗" retains significance in historical texts, entomological references, and cultural works that draw upon ancient Chinese lexicon.
