βλῆραι [f] - αἱ κνίδαι. ἄλλοι χόρτον. οἱ δὲ τῶν ὀσπρίων τὴν καλάμην ‘nettles; fodder, the stalk of straw of pulse’ (H.). *ETYM The conjecture of Strémberg 1944: 54f. is improbable. Note that the gloss is corrupt (the case forms do not agree); perhaps one should assume a second gloss — [Beekes, s.v. βλῆραι, p. 267]
