cjk unified ideograph-2a4b5

𪒵

42166/42720

𪒵 appears in a Chinese poem, but its written form is disputed: one text prints it in a monster’s name, while the Kangxi Dictionary calls the form erroneous. The Han-dynasty poet Wang Yanshou recommends reciting the poem to ward off ghosts after a frightening dream. Taiwan’s Ministry of Education variant index also lists 𪒵 as a form of 狒, used in 狒狒 (“baboon”).

Why does 𪒵 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.
