What 𨾼 means
It is a written variant of 𪀗 in an old cuckoo name.
Jiyun, a Chinese dictionary arranged by rhyming sounds, links the forms in 1037; the Kangxi Dictionary repeats that link in 1716. Its entry identifies 鷶𪀗 as a bird name for 子規, the cuckoo. The earlier Yu Pian dictionary also glosses 𪀗 as 布谷, another traditional cuckoo name. The Mandarin dictionary pronunciation of 𪀗 is guǐ (third tone).

1Why does 𨾼 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
