Lucius Varius Rufus c. 74 &ndash 14 BC , Roman poet of the Augustus Augustan age. He was the friend of Virgil , after whose death he and Plotius Tucca prepared the Aeneid for publication, and of Horace , for whom he and Virgil obtained an introduction to Maecenas . Horace speaks of him as a master of epic and the only poet capable of celebrating the achievements of Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa Vipsanius Agrippa Odes , i. 6 Virgil under the name of Lycidas, Ecl. ix. 35 regrets that he had hitherto produced nothing comparable to the work of Varius or Helvius Cinna . From Macrobius Saturnalia , vi. I, 39 2, 19 we learn that Varius composed an epic poem De Morte , some lines of which are quoted as having been imitated or appropriated by Virgil Horace Sat. i. 10, 43 probably alludes to another epic, and, according to the scholiast on Epistles , j. 16, 2 729, these three lines are taken bodily from a panegyric of Varius on Augustus. But his most famous literary production was the tragedy Thyestes , which Quintilian Inst. Orat. x. 1, 98 declares fit to rank with any of the Greek tragedies. The didascalia which is preserved in a Paris manuscript informs us that it was produced at the games celebrated 29 BC by Augustus in honour of the Battle of Actium victory at Actium , and that Varius received a present of a million sesterce s from the emperor.

All are found in North America . As their name implies, sapsuckers feed primarily on the sap of tree s, moving among different tree and shrub species on a seasonal basis. Insect s, especially those attracted to the sweet sap exuding from sap holes, are often captured and fed to the young during the breeding season. The most easily recognized sap holes are found in birch trees during the breeding season. The members of this genus are slender birds with stiff tails and relatively long wings. Their typical pattern in flight is undulating, alternating between quick bursts of wing beats and short dips with wings tucked against the body. Because sapsuckers attack living trees, they are often considered a pest species. ref TATE, J. 1973. Methods and annual sequence of foraging by the sapsucker.
