Source: Browser Default
U+9BF8 "鯸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents a type of fish, specifically the pufferfish or globefish, known for its ability to inflate itself. This character is composed of two main components: the radical "魚" on the left, meaning fish, and the phonetic component "侯" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation, often read as "hóu" in Mandarin. In traditional Chinese texts, it has been used to refer to species within the Tetraodontidae family, which are noted for their toxicity and defensive behavior, and it appears in classical literature such as the "Shanhaijing" or Classic of Mountains and Seas, where it is sometimes associated with mythical or dangerous aquatic creatures.
