|etymtx=Grammatical information: f.<br />Meaning: name of <b class="b2">an insect</b>, <b class="b2">cockroach, carrion beetle</b> (Arist., Gal., Ael., AP).<br />Other forms: <b class="b3">τίλφη</b> (Luc.).<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: No etymology; <b class="b3">τίλφη</b> in Luc. can be an artificial Atticism (cf. Schwyzer 319). Form and meaning look a bit like <b class="b3">σέρφος</b> (s. v.). -- The <b class="b3">τ</b>\/<b class="b3">σ</b> is clearly a Pre-Greek variation. Furnée 167 etc. points to Lat. [[delpa]], which may have the same source.
