 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2001.05.17
Arnott offers a very useful synopsis of the textual tradition of each of these four authors and an assessment of the standard editions as well as the types of errors and problems often present in fragments quoted by later authors.
Second, the relationship between the Marcianus and the manuscripts of the epitome is somewhat more controversial than Arnott suggests.
A more economical explanation of the facts is perhaps the assumption that the epitome is descended from a relative of the Marcianus rather than from a contaminated tradition of the Marcianus itself and other sources hypothesized to explain divergences.
