Notes:
Same material in other lexica.
[1] The headword is aorist active participle, masculine nominative plural, of a)pamfie/nnumi. It must be quoted from somewhere; perhaps from its only extant occurrence outside lexica, in Themistius.
[2] Menander, Misoumenos 363-364.
[3] Evidently quoted from somewhere but not independently attested.
