Hybanda, quondam insula Ioniae, ducentis nunc a mari abest stadiis, Syrien Ephesus in mediterraneo habet, Derasidas et Sapphoniam vicina ei Magnesia. Epidaurus et Oricum insulae' esse desierunt.

English · Bostock & Riley 1855–57

Again, islands are taken from the sea and added to the main land; Antissa to Lesbos, Zephyrium to Halicarnassus, Æthusa to Myndus, Dromiscus and Perne to Miletus, Narthecusa to the promontory of Parthenium. Hybanda, which was formerly an island of Ionia, is now 200 stadia distant from the sea. Syries is now become a part of Ephesus, and, in the same neighbourhood, Derasidas and Sophonia form part of Magnesia; while Epidaurus and Oricum are no longer islands.
