𱉂

cjk unified ideograph-31242

Variant form of 鸋

𱉂 is an alternate written form of 鸋 (níng), used in the classical bird name 鸋鴂, traditionally identified as an owl. A commentary written during China's Qing dynasty on <i>Erya</i>, an ancient Chinese wordbook, uses 𱉂 in that name where <i>Erya</i> itself has 鸋; the Chinese character dictionary <i>Hanyu Da Zidian</i> records the forms as the same character.

Why does 𱉂 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.
