Notes:
Headword and gloss are in the accusative case, the former perhaps (there are numerous alternatives) extracted from the first quotation given.
[1] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.
[2] Quotation (again, in Adler's opinion, via the Excerpta) unidentifiable. (Adler suggests Aelian.)
[3] Aelian fr. 115a Domingo-Forasté (112 Hercher); see already alpha 2762 (end) and again beta 433.
