      • In Diodorus the name appears as #, but a gens of that name is unknown. Klein (59f., no. 65) and Münzer (RE) plausibly use his association with C. (Sempronius) Longus on his staff (see Legates) to reconstruct the name given above. His governorship, whether as Praetor or Propraetor (#, Diod.), must be dated after that of Scaevola in Asia (Diod.; see 97, Promagistrates) and before the tribunate of Livius Drusus Brennan (2000): p. 747, footnote 263
