karpo/s¹ and perika/rpion are different. Properly karpo/s is the seeds of the fig and the stones of olives, but perika/rpion² is the moist flesh surrounding these, with the skin which covers it.³

Greek original · Adler’s text

Καρπὸς καὶ περικάρπιον διαφέρει. καρπὸς μέν ἐστι κυρίως αἱ κεγχραμίδες τοῦ σύκου καὶ τῶν ἐλαιῶν οἱ πυρῆνες, περικάρπιον δὲ τὸ περικεχυμένον τούτοις ὑγρὸν μετὰ τοῦ περιέχοντος αὐτὸ δέρματος.
