[1] Same glossing in other lexica. The headword is either masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular of this adjective. It might be extracted from the quotation given (in which case it is masculine), but there are other possibilities. For the glossing cf. the scholia to a)po/bleptos (reading disputed) in Euripides, Hecuba 355.
