'''Crobylus''' is thought to be an Athenian Middle Comedy poet, although there is no specific ancient evidence to this effect. Crobylus is said to have lived sometime after 324 BCE. He is sometimes confused with Hegesippus.<ref name=SmithDict />
==Surviving titles and fragments== Eleven fragments of his comedies survive, along with three titles: ''The Man Who Tried to Hang Himself'', ''The Woman Who Was Trying to Leave Her Husband or The Woman Who Left Her Husband'', and ''Falsely Supposititious''. The standard edition of the fragments and testimonia is in Rudolf Kassel and Colin François Lloyd Austin's ''Poetae Comici Graeci'' Vol. IV. The eight-volume ''Poetae Comici Graeci'' produced from 1983 to 2001 replaces the outdated collections {{interlanguage link|Fragmenta Comicorum Graecorum|lt=''Fragmenta comicorum graecorum''|de||fr}} by August Meineke (1839-1857), ''Comicorum Atticorum Fragmenta'' by Theodor Kock (1880-1888) and ''Comicorum Graecorum Fragmenta'' by Georg Kaibel (1899).<ref name=SmithDict>{{cite book |title=Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology |editor-last=Smith |editor-first=William |authorlink=Sir William Smith |year=1870 |publisher=University of Michigan |page=896 |url=http://www.ancientlibrary.com/smith-bio/0905.html |accessdate=2009-08-21 |url-status=usurped |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090825124336/http://www.ancientlibrary.com/smith-bio/0905.html |archivedate=2009-08-25 }}</ref>
