Salmas. Mod. Usur. pp. 728 and 733): quod a malo auctore emīssent,

Cic. Verr. 2, 5, 22:

A. 12, 159, Prob. p. 1452 sq. P., and others make between auctor fem. and auctrix, that auctrix would refer more to the lit. signif. of the verb, augeo, while auctor fem. has more direct relation to the prevailing signif. of its noun, auctoritas, is unfounded.
