Neither the proverb πέρδιξ ὄρουσον (lit. “rush [like a] partridge”?), nor the aorist active imperative singular ὄρουσον is attested anywhere in ancient Greek. The convoluted history of this “proverb” is given in Koch’s edition of the comic fragments (1880): Photius  has παραιξορουσον, Suda παρεξόρουσον, Dindorf Πάρι, ἐξόρουσον, Meineke πάρεξ ὄρουσον, etc. Someone after Koch must have added a partridge (πέρδιξ) into that pear-tree of guesswork. The Aristophanes-fragment (523) has been omitted in Edmond’s edition of comic fragments (1957), so the LSJ online ref. draws a blank [https://www.translatum.gr/forum/index.php?topic=990804.0].
