Κυλλήνη, ὄρος Ἀρκαδίας, σταδίων [Ὀλυμπιακῶν] ἐννέα παρὰ πόδας ὀγδοήκοντα [κατ´ Ἀπολλόδωρον]. ἀπὸ Κυλλήνης Ναΐδος νύμφης. “ἐν τούτῳ δέ φασι τῷ ὄρει τοὺς κοττύφους λευκοὺς γίνεσθαι, ἄλλοθι δὲ μηδαμῆ, καὶ φωνὰς ποικίλας προΐεσθαι, θηρεύεσθαι δὲ πρὸς τὴν σελήνην, τὴν δὲ ἡμέραν εἴ τις ἐπιχειροίη δυσθηράτους εἶναι σφόδρα”. ἔστι δὲ καὶ Ἠλείων ἐπίνειον Κυλλήνη· τὸ ἐθνικὸν Κυλληνεύς καὶ Κυλλήνιος· καὶ Κύλλιος λέγεται Ἑρμῆς κατὰ συγκοπὴν τοῦ Κυλλήνιος.
