Παρθενία οὐκ αὐτὴ ὅλη ἡ Σάμος, ἀλλά τις ἐν αὐτῇ εὑρεθεῖσα γῇ. Φυλλὶς δὲ τὸ καλούμενον γεωφάνιον ἐν Σαμοθράκῃ καὶ Μελίφυλλον ἐκαλεῖτο, Νίκανδρος δὲ φυλλίδα καλεῖ· κελεύει οὐν τέσσαρας δραχμὰς Σαμίας λαμβάνειν. Παρθενία γὰρ ἡ Σάμος ἐκαλεῖτο καὶ φυλλὶς μία τῶν Νυμφῶν. Τὸν Σάμιον ἀστέρα λέγει, ὃν δοκεῖ κριὸς ἐν Σάμῳ εὑρηκέναι· Φυλλὶς γὰρ ἡ Σάμος· ἢ φυλλάδα τὴν βοτάνην ἰδίως καλεῖ, ἥν τιυες μελιτόφυλλόν φασιν, ἧς τὸ χρήσιμον ἀστὴρ λέγεται· ἢ Φυλλὰς οὖν ἡ Μελάμφυλλός ἐστιν.
