Notes:
[1] Likewise in other lexica; references at Photius nu243 Theodoridis. The headword is present middle/passive participle of nomi/zw, neuter nominative/accusative plural. It is perhaps extracted from the quotation given, though the other lexica do not have it, and there are numerous other possibilities.
[2] Aristophanes, Plutus [Wealth] 1185 (web address 1), with scholion; cf. scholion on Aristophanes, Wasps 695; and kappa 2235.
