[κδ΄. Περὶ ὀστρείων.] Ὄστρεια καλοῦσιν ἔνιοι πάντα τὰ ὀστρακόδερμα πρὸς Ἀριστοτέλους ὀνομασθέντα. τὸ δ’ ὑπὸ τῶν πολλῶν ὄστρεον ὀνομαζόμενον, ἐν τῇ δευτέρᾳ συλλαβῇ χωρὶς τοῦ ι λεγόμενον, εἶδος ἕν τι τῶν ὀστρείων τίθενται, περιλαμβάνοντες ἐν τῷ παντὶ γένει καὶ κήρυκας καὶ πορφύρας καὶ χήμας καὶ πίνας ἅπαντά τε τὰ παραπλήσια, ἐφ’ ὧν ἐφεξῆς ἐρῶ.
