L. Papirius Crassus, Cos. 336 and 330, who would normally be identified with this Praetor in a period when the praetorship frequently followed the consulship, was himself Praetor in 340. The other possibilities are L. Papirius Cursor, Cos. 326, 320, 319, 315, 313, and L. Papirius Crassus, Censor in 318. Cursor's praetorship is not otherwise attested, but if he held this praetorship we should have no evidence that the Censor of 318 ever held any curule office. Münzer (RE nos. 46 and 52) admits both possibilities. (Broughton MRR I)
