What 𮩴 means
A classical label for a horse’s white marking.
The Erya, an early Chinese glossary, sorts horse names by where their coat is white. It gives 𮩴 for both white knees and a white left hind foot. A commentary on the Erya cites the Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese dictionary, for the left-hind-foot definition. Since the old glosses differ on placement, use the surrounding horse entry to tell which reading fits.

CJK Unified Ideograph-99B5
馵 is a historical character for a horse with a white left hind foot; classical notes connect 𮩴 with this form.
CJK Unified Ideograph-99Bd
A textual note on the classical Zhuangzi treats 𮩴 as an abbreviated spelling of 馵, then corrects 馵 to 馽 in a passage about tethering horses. 馽 means a horse’s feet are bound; this is a source-specific variant, not a freely interchangeable spelling.
Questions people ask
1Why does 𮩴 show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension F block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
