Duilius, commander of the land forces, succeeded to the command of fleet, defeated the Carthaginians at Mylae, and then on land relieved Segesta and took Macella (Polyb. 1.22-24.1; Cic. Rep. 1.1; Or. 153; Liv. Per. 17; Diod. 23.10; Val. Max. 7.3, ext. 7; Sen. Brev. Vit. 13.3; Plin. NH 16.192; Frontin.

He celebrated the first naval triumph over the Sicilians and the Punic fleet, was honored with the columna rostrata in the Forum, and other privileges besides (CIL, as above; Cic. Sen. 44; Liv.

Among our sources Livy, Val. Max., Eutrop., Polyaen., Oros. and Zon. emphasize that Asina was captured by fraud during a conference. Polybius has Scipio commander of the fleet, and Duilius of the army. He then took charge when Asina was captured. Zonaras reverses the commands. (Broughton MRR I)
