An epic poet. He wrote various things, including To Aitherios[1] after his illness, in epic meter; and To Erythrios and To Dorotheos, leader and companion; and To Aphthonios,[2] companion; and a funeral speech for Hypatia, daughter of Erythrios.[3]
Greek Original:

Notes:
[1] cf. alphaiota 116.
[2] cf. alpha 4630? From the different prepositions used, Cameron 506 infers that "Panolbios wrote invectives on or answers to Aetherius, Dorotheus, and Eruthrius, but a panegyric on Aphthonius"; but Baldwin demonstrates that the distinction between pro/s and ei)s was not maintained in the Suda.
[3] This is not the famous Hypatia of Alexandria, whose father the Suda records as Theon (upsilon 166).
