524. τὸ θηριῶδες τοῦτο: τοῦτο διὰ τὸ λεγόμενον περὶ τῶν ἐχιδνῶν ὅτι μετὰ τὴν συνουσίαν φονεύει τὸν ἄρρενα ἡ ἔχιδνα, οἱ δὲ γεννώμενοι, ὥσπερ τιμωρούμενοι τὸν τοῦ πατρὸς φόνον, διατρήσαντες τὴν κοιλίαν τῆς μητρὸς καὶ φονεύσαντες αὐτὴν γεννῶνται, ὥς φησι Νίκανδρος ἐν τοῖς Θηριακοῖς· οἷς ὅμοιόν ἐστι καὶ τὸ κατὰ τὸν Ὀρέστην καὶ τὴν Κλυταιμνήστραν. A. B. M. I.
