Notes:
The headword term is a very rare one, used in Ezechiel 17.3 LXX in the famous enigma of the eagle (often quoted by the Church Fathers). Only Eusthatius uses this term -- once -- without quoting Ezekiel (Commentarius in hexameron 724.23, on animals that can live in and out of water).
[1] Taken from the Synagogê (Lexica Segueriana eta248.12); quoted also in Photius, Lexicon eta32 (Theodoridis).
[2] Ezechiel 17.3.
