Same entry in other lexica; references at Photius pi952 Theodoridis; see also Kassel-Austin, PCG II p.97 (on Aristophanes fr. 144). The headword is evidently quoted from somewhere but is not independently attested. The verb is also spelled with omega as at pi 1804.
[1] See LSJ s.v. A.4.; cf. scholion on Nicander, Theriaca 295 (where plo/on occurs). For plou=s, see generally pi 1789.
