(TA.) It is observed in the Ṣ, with reference to ذُرُّوحٌ, that, in the opinion of Sb, لَيْسَ فِى الكَلَامِ فُعَّوْلٌ بِوَاحِدَةٌ; meaning, there is not in the language a subst. (as distinguished from an epithet) of the measure فُعَّوْلٌ; (marg. note in a copy of the Ṣ;) or his meaning is, [there is not a word of this measure] with damm alone; (MF;) or with a single ḍammeh, that is, to the ف; but with ḍammeh to the ف and to the ع: (IB:) and it is added in the Ṣ, that he (Sb) used to say سَبُّوحٌ and قَدُّوسٌ: Sb, however, also mentions the forms سُبُّوحٌ and قُدُّوسٌ. (MF.) The pl. is ذَرَايِحُ: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) in the L, ذُرَّاحٌ is also said to be a pl.: and Kr mentions ذَرَارِحُ; but AḤát says that this last is only used in poetry. (TA.) Sb says that the sing. of ذَرَارِيحُ is ذُرَحْرَحٌ, (or, in other words, that one of the [insects called] ذراريح is [called] ذرحرح,) which is of the measure فُعَلْعَلٌ, and of which the dim. is ذُرَيْرِحٌ↓, formed by throwing out the first ذُريْرِحٌ; [not ح, as it would be by rule, making it of the measure ذُرَيْحِرٌ, and its curtailed original فُعَيْلِعٌ;] for there is not in the language a word of the measure فعلع, except فعلع, (Ṣ,) which is the proper name of a man. (MF.) AḤát cites a verse in which حَدْرَدٌ occurs as pl. of ذَرَانِحُ; but the correct reading is ذرنوح. (MF.)

طَعَامٌ مَذْرُوحٌ Food into which cantharides (ذَرَارِيح) have been put. (TA.)
