Chapters 6, 8, 9 and 14 of the so called Paradoxographus Palatinus (PP) have posed problems to editors, as they contain toponyms considered corrupt. Based on some considerations set out in a previous article on the PP, a solution to those problems is here proposed, highlighting the existence of the places named and the reality of the phenomena described in the chapters, as well as the lack of any textual relation with other loci in Greek. As a consequence of this, the confirmation of the manuscript readings and the possibility that the chapters may be the excerptor’s creation are suggested.
