Notes

  1. Same entry in other lexica; references at Photius omicron483 Theodoridis. The headword, an accusative singular, must be quoted from somewhere; perhaps from Nonnus, Dionysiaca, where, in the only two attestations outside lexicography, it occurs twice (47.389 and 48.544). If so, it is used as an adjective rather than a noun (cf. generally LSJ s.v.).
