[1] The tree should be
suka/minos (feminine), and the fruit
suka/minon (neuter).
Hesychius sigma2223 s.v.
suka/mina says "that which some call
more/a, the tree;" cf. sigma2234.
[2] (Addendum lacking, Adler reports, in mss AFV.) From
sigma 1327, except for the phrase "and the seats" which is added here. The addition, unparalleled elsewhere, appears to be polemical, given the insistence of the
scholia vetera on
Aristophanes,
Frogs 1247, that these warts occur only on the eyes. 'Seats' here probably means backsides/rumps, though one might be tempted to replace
tai=s with
a)/llais, i.e. the eyes and other sites.
