Production notes: 
We do not know when this play was produced. The date range for performance given here is based on the possible dates for Apollodorus' career - he probably (if the inscription is restored to read as his name) won at the Lenaea for the first time in 380 BC and may have continued to produced tragedies for 40 years after that (the figure is arbitrary). No fragments from this play survive, but we know of it from the list of titles given in the Suda entry.
