Amphis

Amphis (Greek: Ἄμφις) was an Athenian comic poet of uncertain origin from approximately the 4th century BC.

Pollux seems to refer to Amphis as a Middle Comedy poet, and Amphis' own repeated references to the philosopher Plato place him in the early to mid-4th century BC. His name is not Athenian, and he was probably from the island of Andros (thus Kirchner).
