鸑鷟(上顏角反下崇學反廣疋云鳳屬神鳥也說文義同又云周之興也鳴於歧山江中有鸑鷟似鳥而大赤目二字並從鳥獄族皆聲)。

Yuezhuo bird (鸑鷟) (The upper character has the fanqie 顏角 [yuè]; the lower character has the fanqie 崇學 [zhuó]. The Guangya says: "A mythical bird belonging to the phoenix genus." The Shuowen agrees in meaning and also says: "When the Zhou arose, it cried on Mount Qi. In the Yangzi River there is the yuezhuo, resembling a bird but large with red eyes." Both characters take 鳥 'bird' as semantic, with 獄 and 族 as phonetics).
