Notes:
[1] Same entry in other lexica, beginning with Hesychius iota160. Latte there regards the entry as stemming from Homer, Odyssey 24.279, which in fact has the feminine accusative plural ei)dali/mas (epsiloniota 18) The id- version of the adjective, in the present entry and its analogues, is presumably a corruption of epsiloniota 19.
[2] cf. Hesiod, Works and Days 415, where this adjective occurs in the genitive singular (web address 1).
