Of Ephesos, a doctor more recent.[1] [He wrote] Women's matters, 4 [volumes]; Lives of doctors and [their] schools and collected books, 10 [volumes]; and various other things.

Notes:

[1] sc. than sigma 851. But in fact surely identical with him.
[2] Damascius, Life of Isidore fr. 201 Zintzen (129 Asmus); cf. Photius Bibliotheca 344b 28-31 (where we are told that Asclepiodotus surpassed Jacobus in some respects). For Asclepiodotus see generally alpha 4174; for Jacobus, iota 12 and iota 13.
