One can note that, according to Sulpicius, all of these monks came after learning of Gallus stories from the day before. Hence, they were all living no more than few hours journey from Primuliacum (but not in the same place: Aurelius is said to live the farthest).
It is possible that one of the monks mentioned, Aper, should be identified with the Presbyter Aper, to whom Paulinus of Nola addressed several letters, see [2145].
