𮕌 is a Chinese character recorded for a soil grub, the larval stage of a beetle. Its historical use survives in a book that compares regional Chinese words.

Text symbol

What 𮕌 means

A soil-dwelling beetle grub. In plain terms, it names a beetle larva found in soil. A Qing-dynasty reference work, in an edition with a preface dated 1735, cites the term from Fangyan, Yang Xiong’s Han-period book comparing regional words.

Why might 𮕌 appear as a box?

The font may not include this rare glyph. 𮕌 belongs to an extended CJK block. Unicode identifies the character, but the active font still needs to supply its drawing; without that glyph, the same text can appear as a missing-character box.

Why does 𮕌 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.
