Despite the Suda's spelling 'Erasinades', repeated in the headword of
epsilon 3234, this is almost certain to be Erasinides (sic), one of the ten Athenian generals for the year 406/5 (during which they were held culpable for the Athenian fatalities at the battle of
Arginousai↗); see Develin 178-9. (A Corinthian commander of the same name in 414 is mentioned in some of the mss of
Thucydides 7.7.1, and printed in some modern editions, but the variant reading Thrasonides is preferable; see Hornblower 554.)
Adler suggested that the entry comes from the
scholia to
Aristophanes,
Frogs 1196, where he is mentioned (
epsilon 3234). Alternatively [DW], from
scholia to one of his several mentions in book 1 of
Xenophon's
Hellenica (between 1.5.16 and 1.7.29); see also e.g.
Xenophon,
Memorabilia 1.1.18,
Lysias 21.8.
