U+87BE "螾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily refers to the earthworm, an invertebrate belonging to the annelid phylum, and in classical texts it also denotes a type of worm or insect associated with the earth. This character is composed of the radical 虫 (chóng, meaning "insect" or "worm") and the phonetic component 寅 (yín), indicating its pronunciation in Mandarin as "yǐn." Historically, 螾 appears in ancient literature, such as the "Erya" dictionary, where it is defined as a synonym for the earthworm, and it carries symbolic associations with fertility and the aeration of soil due to the creature's ecological role.
