bishop of Aquileia, was of African origin, and an active participant in the strifes which agitated the Church in the 4th century. At the Council of Milan, A.D. 355, he joined in the condemnation of Athanasius, but after 357 we hear no more of him. He wrote commentaries on the Gospels, characterized by Jerome as useful, though incorrect in style. Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, 18:232; Ceillier, Histoire des Auteurs Ecclesiastiques, t. 6, page 11. (J.W.M.)
