[1] = Synagoge, Photius lambda506 Theodoridis (with other references). From commentary on Homer, Odyssey 9.84, in reference to the Lotus-eaters encountered by Odysseus; cf. the scholia thereto. The term was used of a wide variety of different plants: see LSJ s.v.
[2] An approximation of Greek Anthology 7.182.3-4 (Meleager [Author, Myth]), which is quoted more precisely in the third quotation; see n. 4 below. Presumably the musical instrument in question was so called because it was made from a stalk of one of the plants called lotus, although in the second quotation below an instrument made of horn seems to be referred to. (See generally West 113; and note that, despite the Suda's glossing term auloi, they seem to have been reedless pipes broadly comparable to present-day flutes.)
[3] Greek Anthology 6.94.3 (Philip of Thessalonike), where the word rendered as 'horn-sounding' is spelled kerobo/as, not the Suda's unmetrical kerwbo/as. On this epigram, a dedication to Rhea by one of her retiring priests, see Gow and Page (vol. I, 306-307); (vol. II, 340); and its further extracts at kappa 2680, sigma 16, and tau 1166.
[4] Greek Anthology 7.182.3 (Meleager); see note 2 above. Also see another excerpt from this epigram at pi 1412.
[5] Greek Anthology 7.186.1-2 (Philip of Thessalonike). See further extracts from this epigram, in which Nikippis dies on her wedding day, at epsilon 548 and kappa 2258.
