Anonymus 36 is recorded in an anecdote about the emperor Theophilos 5; he was the komes stabuli (τὸν κόμητα τοῦ στάβλου or similar) whom Theophilos 5 asked to explain where the emperor's horse came from; he explained that the komes of the Opsikion (Anonymus 37) had sent it to the emperor: Leo Gramm. 223, Georg. Mon. Cont. 803, Ps.-Symeon 637. For a similar story but not mentioning any role for a person like this, cf. Theoph. Cont. III 7 (pp. 92-94) and see Anonymus 38.
