Imbrex, C. Lici'nius

an ancient Latin comic poet, quoted by Gellius and Festus, of whose plays only one is expressly mentioned, namely, " Neaera." Vulcatius Sedigitus assigned him the fourth place in the list of Latin comic poets. (Festus, s. vv. Imbrex, Obstitum; Gel. 13.22, 15.24.) Vossius conjectured (De Poetis Latinis, p. 5) that this Licinius Imbrex is the same as the Licinius Tegula mentioned by Livy [TEGULA], because imbrex is a species of tegula, but Festus gives the praenomen of Caius to the former, and Livy that of Publius to the latter.

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
