Translation:
[Meaning] they block,[1] they conceal. Whence also [comes the adjective] 'tip-stuffed'[2], [meaning] having a tip that has been stuffed.

Buousi: phrattousi, kaluptousin. enthen kai akrobustos, ho to akron bebusmenon echôn. Pisidês: erô de soi nun, eiper ou buein theleis.
Notes:
The headword is present indicative active, third person singular, of bu/w. It is similarly glossed in other lexica and must be quoted from somewhere -- perhaps Aristotle, History of Animals 632a18.
