What 𩽾 means
Type pinyin an in a Chinese input method, then choose 𩽾.
If your input method does not offer it, Wubi 86 lists QGPV. In Microsoft Office, type 29F7E and press AltX; hexadecimal entry can work when a Chinese input method does not offer this uncommon character.
A box means the font lacks this glyph. Taiwan's CNS 11643 directory listed Windows 10 and later default fonts as supporting it as of 2024; another system may need a font covering Extension B, a range of less widely supported Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters.
What does 𩽾 mean?
It is the first character in a Chinese name for anglerfish.
Simplified Chinese 𩽾𩾌 names anglerfish or monkfish; traditional Chinese writes 鮟鱇. Japanese also uses 鮟鱇 for the fish.
The traditional form 鮟 appears in the historical dictionary trail: the Kangxi Dictionary, a Chinese reference, records it as a fish-name character and cites Jiyun, a Chinese dictionary that groups characters by rhyme.
Specialized and lexical: it belongs in a Chinese fish name, not ordinary conversation.
Alone, it can look like a typo or an unfinished word.

1Why does 𩽾 show as a box?
Your font may not include 𩽾. A font with coverage for CJK Extension B, the character range containing it, should display the glyph.
