74 A GLOSSARY OF GREEK BIRDS 



KAAANAPOI {contimied). 



through O. F. calandre, caladre, from L. caradrius, Gk. x«/joS/kos 

 (cf. Babr. Ixxxii ; and vide infra s. v. xapaSpios). Said by others 

 to be connected with \^.calie7idni77i, a tufted head-dress, a top-knot.

 Italy; cf. Frederick II, De Venat. p. 32; J. G. Schneider, Anm. z. d. 

 Eel. Phys. p. 41 ; see also Bechstein's ' Cage Birds,' &c.

 Billerbeck KiXXvpov s. KiXXovpov : cf. J. G. Schneider z'n loc. The whole 

 chapter is replete with difficulties, and, in my opinion, with signs of 

 foreign influence or even of spurious origin.

KA'P4>YP0I' ol peoa-aoi, Hesych. 



KAIANAH'PION' IktIvos, Hesych. A very doubtful word; an emended 

 reading is Kdcrw- dijplov (Schmidt). 



KA'iniOI "OPNII. A remarkable bird, of three varieties, of which 

 one croaks like a frog, one bleats like a goat, and the third barks 

 like a dog. Full description in Ael. xvii. 33, 38. It is not 

 identified by Gesner. 



KATAPPA'KTHI, s. KarapdKTTis (Arist., Codd. Med. Vatic, &c.). An 

 unknown bird ; the references to which are so discordant as to 

 suggest that the meaning was early lost, if indeed the name was 

 ever applied to an actual species. It is the ' Cormorant,' "p^, 

 of the LXX. 



Mentioned in Ar. Av. 886. In Soph. frr. 344, 641, applied to the 

 Eagle and to the Harpies (cf. Hesych.), as KaTappaKTrjp is to KipKos, Lye.
