Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at
Photius tau531 Theodoridis. The headword must be quoted from somewhere; perhaps from the long fragment of
Solon's
Elegies quoted in
Demosthenes 19.255 (web address 1).
[2] Perfect middle/passive participle, masculine nominative singular, of the related compound verb
e)ktruxo/w; evidently extracted from the quotation given here (its only attestation).
[3] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.
