[1] Same material, according to Adler, in the
Ambrosian Lexicon.

Aelian fr. 131 Domingo-Forasté, 128 Hercher (this word only).
[3]
Aelian fr. 173 Domingo-Forasté, 170 Hercher (again, single word). Adler's note cites the
Aelian fragment only tentatively, '(?)170', and there has to be an outside chance -- despite
pi 930, which may be no more than a mechanical cross-reference -- that "storklets" is quoted from somewhere else. The three extant possibilities are:
Aristophanes,
Birds 1356 (accusative plural);
Plutarch,
Moralia 992B (dative plural); and
Procopius,
On the Wars of Justinian 3.4.33 (accusative plural).
