Notes:
The headword is the aorist passive participle, masculine nominative and vocative singular, of the verb
fwra/w,
I search after a thief, detect, discover; see
phi 664, and generally LSJ s.v. It is presumably generated from the following note, which is taken from the
scholia to
Aristophanes,
Plutus [
Wealth] 174 (web address 1).
[1] The headword is identically glossed in the
Synagoge and
Lexica Segueriana 411.18; cf.
Etymologicum Magnum 804.8 (Kallierges) and
Hesychius. Adler also cites the
Etymologicum Genuinum.

Aristophanes,
Plutus [
Wealth] 174 (web address 1) mentions Pamphilos (
Pamphilus, Develin person no. 2239). This note is from the
scholia to the line, which records the embezzling incident (389/8 BCE) that ended Pamphilos' military and political career; cf.
pi 144.
