Adler number: mu,443
Translated headword: melagria
Vetting Status: high
Translation: A kind of plant growing in a desert.
Greek Original:*melagri/a: ei)=dos bota/nhs fuome/nhs e)n e)rh/mw|.
Note:
The headword is nominative/accusative plural of a neuter noun
melagrion; cf.
mu 467 for the variant
meleagria. Adler suggests Symeon Metaphrastes as a source (at both entries), but in fact the
melag- version is quite copiously attested in Cyril's biographies of the saints.
