1 The two previous volumes were reviewed at CR 33 (1983), 309 and 40 (1990), 214–16.

2 They will be included in the forthcoming second edition of my Iambi et Elegi Graeci, ii, where I have had to re-number Simonides' elegiac fragments entirely.

3 A one-word fragment to be added is β⋯ν from Phot. β 342. A testimonium to be added at Simon. 651 (= Carm. Conv. 890) is Liban. Ep. 1428.

4 The printer has not quite got the measure of the acrophonic numeral 5 in Simon, test. 8, or of letters in suspension in scholia at 519 fr. 79. 11 and 92. 7. Little wrong otherwise.

5 Wrong accents, however, are taken over from Page in half a dozen places; also πρεσβευτ⋯ς for πρεσβ⋯της at Ibyc. 287.

6 Hyperdoricisms are also perpetuated on pp. 64 Γαρυοναἴς (after Page), 134 Φωκ⋯ες, 410 Ἀλκ[μ⋯ν]ας (after Page, who falsely implicates Lobel), 414 [⋯]πιοδερ|κ-] (correct Pind. Pae. 7. 7, cl. Stes. 223. 2, Bacch. 13. 78, Theoc. 17. 51).
