Notes
- Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at Photius pi1427 Theodoridis. The headword, nominative plural, is perhaps quoted from somewhere in that form, and if so, the likeliest source is Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica (2.743 or 4.312); however, the present gloss shows similarities with a scholion on the dative plural in Argonautica 1.11 (and already, as that scholiast notes, in Homer, Iliad 17.263).
