Same or similar entry in other lexica; references at Photius alpha966 Theodoridis.
The primary headword + gloss are ambiguous per se, as they could be either third person singular active or second person singular middle/passive; however, as the active form would be a great rarity, it is surely middle/passive (so Latte on Hesychius s.v.), and perhaps quoted from Xenophon, Oeconomicus 18.3.
[1] This too must be quoted from somewhere but is too commonplace to track down.
