*leio/fulon: futo\n o(malo/dermon. 

Notes

  1. Neuter singular of this adjective. Mss GM, Adler reports, spell it with double lambda leio/fullon (attested in Theophrastus and Athenaeus); ms V has leio/futon (otherwise unattested). Aemilius Portus adopted the reading leio/floion "smooth-barked" from the Ambrosian Lexicon; this also is attested in Theophrastus.
