Literature Alfölfy: Konsulat (1977) p.176 prefers that P.Furius Saturninus was cos suff in 161, not 162,

Piso: Fasti Daciae (1993) p.73-75 (§17 P.Furius Saturninus cos suff 161/162)

Scheid: Freres Arvales (1975) p.176-187 (.M.Furius Camillus cos 8AD and his son Scribonianus cos 32). He argues that M.Furius Cxamillus F577 is identical to Scribonianus.
Settipani: Continuite (2000) p.66 (stemma over Patrician gens which I have deviated from several places), p.144 (on descendents of Furia Caecilia F585. He proposes that her mother was a Pontia, 
sister to M.Pontius Varanus Sabinus).

Sumner: Orators (1973) p.61 (L.Furius Philus cos 136 BC) believes RE82 and RE77 are the sons of RE80. Possible but more likely sons of RE81.
Taylor: Voting Districts (1960/2013) p.216-217. Tusculum is in tribus Papiria, but note Crassipes is in Oufentina..
