Same entry in
Photius (mu148 Theodoridis), and very similar already in
Hesychius (mu419).
This variant (here in the neuter singular) of
a)mauro/s is also recorded in Herodian,
De Prosodia Catholica p. 193 and
Philoxenus fr. 433 Theodoridis (though it may well be a fictional form). See LSJ s.v.
mauro/s. Chantraine (s.v.
a)mauro/s) says "probablement formation inverse de
mauro/omai et
mauro/w ... qui doit être issu de
a)mauro/w par chute de l'initiale." See also

mu 297,
sigma 1751.
