Headword: *)wmobo/rwn
Adler number: omega,94
Translated headword: of raw-flesh-devouring [ones]
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] of raw-flesh-eating [ones].
Greek Original:

Note:
Likewise or similarly in other lexica. Headword and gloss mean essentially the same, but the first is rarer -- something not always true of Suda entries. They are genitive plurals, so the headword is evidently quoted from somewhere: perhaps Nonnus' Dionysiaca (where it occurs five times) or an ecclesiastical writer. See LSJ entry at web address 1.
