Ὠκυπλόων· ταχυπόρων.

Betacode

*)wkuplo/wn: taxupo/rwn.

Adjective in the genitive plural, not attested outside lexicography, but evidently an item of epic vocabulary; cf. omega 42, omega 45, etc. and LSJ s.v. w)ku/poros (sic).
Same glossing in the Lexica Segueriana (421.5). Hesychius has the same gloss for w)kupo/rwn, and also an entry for o( w)ku/ploos (misprinted as o( w)ku/kloos in LSJ s.v., corrected in the Supplement), glossed as o( taxe/ws ple/wn.
