U+87A5 "螥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+87A5 "螥" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare Chinese character that belongs to the insect radical and is traditionally defined as a type of fly or gnat in classical dictionaries. This logograph consists of components suggesting an insect or bug alongside a phonetic element, though its specific usage in modern Chinese or Japanese is extremely limited, with no common vocabulary or standard meanings recorded in contemporary writing systems. Its encoding in the Unicode standard ensures that it can be represented digitally for historical or scholarly purposes, preserving a niche piece of East Asian script heritage.
