[Meaning] worms.
*sh=pes: oi( skw/lhkes.
The headword is nominative plural -- presumably quoted from somewhere -- of the noun
sh/y (which is related to the verb
sh/pw "putrify":
sigma 350, and cf.
sigma 330). Same entry in ps.-
Zonaras and (according to Adler) a similar one in the
Ambrosian Lexicon;
Hesychius has the same headword but glosses it 'creeping creatures, snakes'.
For the Suda's gloss, see e.g.
sigma 338,
sigma 684.
