𪇑猴（上暉運反下音侯即此鵂鶹恠鳥也晝伏夜飛鳴以自呼大如鴟鳶蒼斑釐色𭪿爪如鷹眼睛赤銅色無故忽鳴必有災恠方言音訛轉本無定名𪇑猴𪇑鶘及以鵂鶹音異義同共是一鳥未詳其定今並出之也）。

𪇑猴 (The upper character is pronounced with the fanqie 暉運 [hùn]; the lower character has the sound 侯 [hóu]. This is the collared scops owl (鵂鶹), an ominous bird. It hides by day and flies by night, crying out its own name. It is as large as a kite, ash-speckled in colour, with talons like an eagle and red copper-coloured eyes. When it suddenly cries out without cause, there will surely be misfortune or calamity. Through dialectal shifts, it originally had no fixed name: 𪇑猴, 𪇑鶘, and 鵂鶹 have different pronunciations but the same meaning, all referring to one and the same bird. Since the definite term is not clear, all are cited here.)
