*lopa=si: kle/ptais.

Same entry -- of, ostensibly, two nouns in the dative plural -- elsewhere: see the references at Photius lambda397 Theodoridis. However, headword and gloss do not match: Theodoridis obelizes lopasin (the Suda's lopa=si) and notes the variant lwpa/si (likewise glossed as kle/ptais) in a Lucianic scholion; Dindorf persuasively suggested this to be a corruption of lwpodu/tais (cf. lambda 734).
