Rare Chinese bee character

𧏢 is a rare Chinese character associated with 蜂, the character for a bee. An early Chinese dictionary, Shuowen, records 蠭 as an older form of 蜂; Chinese also uses 蜂 for people gathering like a swarm, as in 蜂起. A Chinese supplementary character set from 2001 lists 𧏢 in an entry for 蜂.

Why does 𧏢 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
