Brill's New Pauly: "Nemesianus, M. Aurelius N. Author of bucolic
writings, before AD 284?, the name Carthagin(i)ensis appended in some MSS indicates, N. came
from Africa. He wrote four bucolic poems (Bucolica, Buc.) and a didactic poem about hunting
(Cynegetica, Cyn.), of which verses 1-325 are extant. The dedication of the Cyn. to the
emperors Carinus and Numerianus..enables dating to shortly before AD 284. Whether N. also
wrote Halieutica and Nautica, as maintained by SHA Car. 11,2, is doubtful, as is the
authenticity of two fragments of a didactic poem on catching birds (De aucipio) ..." from
