U+9CED "鳭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+9CED "鳭" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and ancient Chinese character that primarily refers to a type of small bird, often associated with the crested myna or similar species in classical texts. Its structure combines the radical for "bird" with a phonetic component, and it appears in historical dictionaries like the Kangxi Zidian, though it is seldom used in modern Chinese or Japanese writing. This character is mainly of interest to scholars of historical linguistics, paleography, and Chinese etymology, as it preserves a lexicographical trace of a now-obsolete term for a specific avian creature.
