Notes:
[1] Likewise in other lexica. The headword, genitive plural, must be quoted from somewhere -- perhaps
Oppian,
Halieutica 2.676, where the
scholia gloss 'Romans'.
[2] This odd material is unparalleled elsewhere.
[3]
Strabo's preferred variant is
*Au)so/nion pe/lagos
[4] (Atlas and Kalypso, in other versions.) For this material cf. the
scholia to Lykophron,
Alexandra 702.
