What 𮧻 means
It writes the same Chinese word as 龍: “dragon.”
The Tang-era Ganlu zishu guide pairs 𮧻 with 龍. It sorted forms as popular, accepted, or standard: accounts and recipes could use popular forms, while exam essays called for standard ones. A Ming-era glossary of variants also records the pair.
Why does 𮧻 show as a box?
A font without its exact glyph can leave a box.
Unicode stores 𮧻 in an additional range for Han characters. If none of the available fonts includes its drawing, an app may show a box or replacement mark.

1Why does 𮧻 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.
