Apollodorus of Gela (Шаблон:Lang-el), Magna Graecia, in Sicily was a New Comedy playwright. According to Eudokia Makrembolitissa and the Suda, he was a contemporary of Menander, and accordingly lived between the years 340 and 290 BC.

Both the Suda and Eudokia attribute to him seven comedies, of which they give the titles. But while the editors of the Suda ascribes them to Apollodorus of Gela, they assign one of these same comedies in another passage to Apollodorus of Carystus. Other writers also frequently confound the two comic poets.
