U+880B "蠋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+880B "蠋" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically represents a type of insect, specifically a caterpillar or a wood-boring larva, often associated with silk production or decay. In classical texts like the Shijing (Classic of Poetry), it appears in metaphors describing human efforts or natural processes, but it is rarely used in modern Chinese, where it has largely been replaced by more common characters for similar meanings. Its structure combines the "insect" radical 虫 with the phonetic component 蜀, which itself relates to the ancient state of Shu, giving the character a layered etymological link to both biology and geography.
