Prefect? at Sulmo, in 49. The officer who fled from Sulmo before Caesar's advance in 49 (MRR 2.270-271) is identified by Münzer with Q. Lucretius Vespillo (36), a commander in Pompey's fleet in 49-48 (MRR 2.283). The identification is probable, although Caesar's use of two forms of the name may indicate two different persons (BC 1.18, Q. Lucretio senatore, therefore at least of quaestorian rank; 3.7.1, Lucretius Vespillo). (Broughton MRR III)
