Enquiry into Plants

1. ¹ ἐκπελεκῶντας conj. W.; ἐκπλέκοντες U; ἐκπλέοντες M; ἐκ πλήττοντες Ald.
2. ² The sense given to περιπεποιημένον is unexampled, and the word may be corrupt.
3. ¹ Plin. 12. 55 and 56. ² Plin. 12. 67.
4. 3 ἔχειν conj. Sch.: ἔχει P2,Ald.
5. 4 λιβανωτοῦ δαφνοειδὲς καὶ λειόφλοιον δ᾿ εἶναι conj. Sch.; λιβά- νου τοῦ δαφνοειδὲς καὶ λειόφυλλον δ᾿ εἶναι UM; λιβάνου δαφνοειδὲς
6. 1 πραθῆναι conj. Sch. from G; πρασθῆναι U; προσθῖναι P2 Ald.
7. ¹ Plin. 12. 66 and 67. ² Plin. 12. 53.
8. ³ πλακώδη: lit. ‘with a crust’; so W., but the word does not seem to occur elsewhere in this sense.

10. ¹ Plin. 15. 57; cf. 16. 135.
11. ² δ᾿ ἔχει conj W.; διΐεται P2Ald; om. H.
12. ³ θεραπείας add. Sch. from G; οὐδεμιᾶς τυγχάνειν UMAld.; οὐ μιᾶς τυγχάνειν P2. But there is no sign of a lacuna in the MSS., and οὐδεμίας is probably corrupt, as W. suggests. οὐδὲ θερ. is inconsistent with 9. 4. 2.
