Notes:
[1] The headword is neuter nominative/accusative singular of this adjective (cf.
upsilon 339), probably quoted from the first of the quotations given. (All the quotations are transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpts made for Constantine Porphyrogenitus.)
[2] Quotation unidentifiable.
[3] Identified by Johannes Becker, Adler notes, as
Philostratus,
Life of Apollonius of Tyana 1.18 (which has
u(perori/w| in the dative singular); mistakenly assigned to
Damascius (Asmus fr. 28).
[4] Eutropius,
Breviarium 1.18; quoted more fully at
rho 247.
