Notes

Likewise or similarly in other lexica (see the references at Photius lambda246 Theodoridis), including Apollonius' Homeric Lexicon, and cf. a scholion on Homer, Iliad 2.147, where the singular of this neuter noun -- lh/i+on (A) in LSJ -- occurs (web address 1). The Suda's plural must be quoted from somewhere else.
