Greek Original:
Ναύλοχον: εὔδιον, ἐν ᾧ αἱ ναῦς λοχῶσιν, ἢ ἀναπαύονται. ὁ δὲ ναῦς προσέταξεν ἐν τοῖς ἀγκῶσι ναυλοχεῖν λανθάνοντας: ἐπειδὰν δὲ αἴσθωνται ζευγνύειν αὐτὸν τὴν γέφυραν, διαβάλλειν ὡς τάχιστα. παρὰ δὲ Ἡροδότῳ λιμὴν ἢ εὐδία. οὕτω καὶ παρ' Ὁμήρῳ.
Notes:
The headword is neuter singular of the adjective ναύλοχος , used as a substantive; cf. LSJ s.v.
[1] Similarly glossed in other lexica, including Apollonius' Homeric Lexicon; cf. scholion on Homer, Odyssey 4.846 (where the participle λοχόωντες occurs). Cf. nu 61.
[2] Arrian, Parthica fr. 58 Roos-Wirth.
[3] From a gloss on Herodotus 7.189.2, where the participle ναυλοχέοντες occurs.
[4] See Homer, Odyssey 4.846, 10.141: ναύλοχος is an adjective modifying λιμήν . This last comment is lacking in manuscripts AFV.
