Martyr St. Claudius Stratelates
"He was the son of Ptolemy, brother of Emperor Numerian. He was relegated to Ansuna to the governor Arianus, who tried to win him over with worldly possessions, but when his endeavors failed, he lost his temper and slew the saint with a javelin."
Feast: Paoni 11 (Coptic Calendar)

(St.?) Claudius
A scrap of parchment, P.Duk.inv. 238, formerly Duke Coptic MS. 11, said to pertain to a 3c St. Victor (a general) and to Theodorus Stratelates, mentions Victor from Antiochia, Claudius from Egypt and the tomb of Theodoros from Antiochia. Some phenomenally clear photographs are just a click away, in which if your Coptic is good, you can read it all clearly. In fact, you need not have Coptic to make out
Klaudios
towards the bottom of the left column of
238r.
Note at any rate that this primary evidence seems to form a bridge between the preceding and the next.

SS. Claudius, Lupercus, & Victorius

Feast: October 30

Comments:
This is probably the most likely on this page; but the church of S. Claudio was a dependency of the Camaldolese abbey of
S. Silvestro near Collepino.
Does this lend credence to a Benedictine saint, whether this one or the next?
