I notice that the encyclopedia in English gave the same name which could be for 2 men : Caius Antonius Nepos and Antonius Hybrida. In other languages, the consul in 63 BC is just Caius Antonius.
Pliny supposes that Antonius Hybrida was the consul. He could be wrong.
He could have confused the two men. One is really the son of Orator (Caius Antonius), the other not. One was praetor in 67 BC(Caius Antonius), so inside the Senate for more than 3 years, the other (Antonius Hybrida) was excluded from the Senate in 70 BC.
Some authors think that Caius Antonius was Nepos, this other, Hybrida, the ex senator expelled from the Senate in exile in Spain.
