Text symbol

What 𪂌 means

It names a bird, but not a particular species.

The Guangyun (Broad Rhymes), a Song-dynasty dictionary for looking up Chinese readings and poetic rhymes, records it as a bird name in 1008. The Kangxi Dictionary repeats the same brief gloss in 1716. The entries preserve one broad meaning across centuries but name no species.
