What 椡 means

In Japanese, it writes くぬぎ. It is a kokuji (a kanji made in Japan) and appears in 三ツ椡, read みつくぬぎ, a Shibata place name.

A Japanese dictionary cites くぬぎ in a 720 passage of the Nihon Shoki, an early chronicle. Late Edo village records include 三ツ椡村 and 三ツ椡新田.

Unihan also lists Mandarin dào (roughly 'dow' with falling pitch) and Cantonese dou3 (roughly 'doh' at a level pitch).

A rare Japanese tree-name kanji with a documented place-name use.

Why does 椡 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.
