Meaning
Apollo is summoned as Λυκωρεῦ at XXXIV.1, beside Paian, slayer of Tityos, and Phoibos. The vocative is a divine title, not an occurrence of λύκειος. Its geographical or historical background is not explained in this line, so resemblance to another epithet should not supply the missing explanation.
