"νυκτάλωψ" meaning in Ancient Greek

See νυκτάλωψ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /nyk.tá.lɔːps/, /nykˈta.lops/, /nikˈta.lops/, /nyk.tá.lɔːps/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /nykˈta.lops/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /nykˈta.lops/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /nykˈta.lops/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /nikˈta.lops/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: The suffix, which is found also in ἀγχίλωψ (ankhílōps), αἱμάλωψ (haimálōps) and θῡμάλωψ (thūmálōps), is typically Pre-Greek. The connection with νύξ (núx, “night”) must be folk-etymological.
