Plin. 16. 85. Koi TOV KiTTov Kol TOV MSS. cf. Pllii. Lc. ; Dlosc. 4. 164. Kol TOV KiKiov TOV Koi conj. Galen, Lex. Hipp., gives
KiKiov as a name for the root of KpoTwv. cf. G.P. 2. 16. 4. ^ *.e. not ^entire.' = Young leaves leaves of the young tree.
- This seems to contradict what has just been said.
^ Ttt ^pOpa add. Sch. from Plin. 16. 88, incisuras. cf. Arist. H.A. 1. 15, where Plin. (11. 274) renders cipd pa incisuras. 1
