Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In Genesis 46:16 the APB renders the name within the list, “The sons of Gad were Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli”; in Numbers 26:16 it appears in the clause “and Eri, the clan of the Erites.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “Eri” in both verses: once in a list of Gad’s sons and once alongside a clan designation. The term’s specific relation to the clan wording is indicated by the verse context rather than by a separate marked rendering.
