An Apollonides, without any statement as to what was his native country, is mentioned by Strabo (vii. p.309, xi. pp. 523, 528), Pliny (Plin. Nat. 7.2), and by the Scholiast on Apollonius Rhodius (4.983, 1174; comp. 2.964), as the author of a work called περίπλος τῆς Εὐρώπης. Stobaeus (Florileg. 67.3, 6) quotes some senarii from one Apollonides.
