Likewise or similarly in other lexica.
The headword adjective famously occurs in Hesiod, Works and Days 704 (of a bad wife): deipnolo/xhs, feminine genitive singular. Here in the lexica, however, it is masculine accusative singular (or, less probably, neuter nominative/accusative singular), indicating another -- unidentifiable -- source-passage.
