What 𮫽 means
Language decides the fish.
Japanese references call 𮫽 a kokuji, a kanji formed in Japan, read さけ (sake) for salmon; ordinary modern Japanese usually writes 鮭.
In a Korean–Japanese glossary dating to the 18th century, 𮫽魚 is paired with Korean 병어 (byeong-eo) and Japanese マナガツオ (managatsuo), both names for the silvery pomfret.
Specialist fish-name character.

1Why does 𮫽 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.
