Same entry in ps.-
Zonaras. The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation given, is an adjective in the neuter nominative (and accusative) singular, and it is glossed with the equivalent form of a more commonplace adjective (used in sense II of LSJ s.v.). This form of the headword adjective is first attested in the
Septuagint (
3 Maccabees 3.10).
This entry has no parallel in earlier lexicography (though
Hesychius glosses the same headword with
diatetame/non, 'stretched-out').

[1] Quotation unidentifiable.
[2] This addendum (lacking, Adler reports, in mss TFVM) proffers a present active participle, feminine nominative singular, from the same verbal stem as the headword adjective. It must be quoted from somewhere but is otherwise unattested.
