U+87A4 "螤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+87A4 "螤" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character that historically appeared as a variant form in classical texts, primarily associated with meanings related to insects or small creatures, though its precise definition has become obscure over time. In modern usage, it is not a standard component of simplified Chinese and may be encountered mainly in antique dictionaries, specialized linguistic studies, or traditional calligraphy where archaic glyphs are preserved. Its composition combines a radical meaning "insect" with a phonetic component, reflecting typical structural patterns in Chinese writing.
