KAAANAPOI (continued']. 



through O. F. calandre, caladre, from L. caradrius, Gk. 



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



to be connected with "L.caliendrum, a tufted head-dress, a top-knot.

 Billerbeck KiXXvpov s. Ki\\ovpov : cf. J. G. Schneider in loc. The whole 

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

 foreign influence or even of spurious origin.

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

 reading is KCLO-W' 6rjpiov (Schmidt). 



KA'iniOI "OPNIZ. 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,' j?9, 

 of the LXX. 



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

 Eagle and to the Harpies (cf. Hesych.), as KaTappaKrrjp is to /a'pKos, Lye.
