Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+87AF "螯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that depicts the pincer or claw of a crab, scorpion, or other arthropod, often specifically referring to the chelae used for grasping and defense. In modern usage, it is most commonly associated with the compound word "螯肢" (áo zhī), meaning chelicerae, the mouthpart appendages of arachnids, and appears in biological terminology for describing crustacean and insect anatomy. The character combines the radical for "insect" (虫) to indicate its taxonomic connection with arthropods, with a phonetic component suggesting its pronunciation "áo" in Mandarin.
