an island in the Euripus of Euboea, near the Locri Opuntii, said to have been originally a city of the Locri, but torn from the continent in the time of an earthquake, and during an eruption of mount Etna. This happened in the fourth year of the 93rd Olympiad, in the reign of Artaxerxes Memon, (Pliny, Or. 10.)
