Vedhavera [for Sanskrit vaidhaveya, from vidhavā] son of a widow; in two different passages of the Jātaka, both times characterized as sukka-cchavī vedhaverā "sons of widows, with white skins," and at both places misunderstood (or unintelligibly explained) by the Commentary, viz. Ja IV 184 (+ thulla-bāhū; commentary: vidhavā apatikā tehi vidhavā sarantī ti [ti]vidha-verā ca vedhaverā); VI 508 (commentary: vidhav'itthakā; v.l. vidhavittikāmā purisā).
